When searching for Google videos, you [typically] get 10 results per page. But the descriptions for each video is too short to give any real information. This script remedies that by grabbing the description from the "ABSTRACT" for the actual video itself. It will display that description whenever you hover over each of the links to the video in a white box. When you move your cursor off the link, it removes the description.

This way you don't have to waste bandwidth trying to start the download of the video, when maybe all you really wanted was to see what the video was about (then maybe you'll go view it!).
