Inline Contextual Actions
"This is a belated post, but certainly still relevant. Last month, Bill Scott wrote up a great overview of various “mouse hover” interaction elements including: inline editing, rating, flagging, zooming, and exposing additional detail.
I added to his list by pointing out that mouse hovers can include both additional details AND multiple actions. This makes additional actions immediately usable and removes the need for a page refresh and link back to the original context (the traditional web interaction for exposing additional actions).
