How to create a url/link preview? I'm managing a content sharing site built on drupal 7 and I would like to let users submit links as content.

Is there a simple way of creating a thumbnail / preview of the link (like on facebook)?
I think Opengraph Filter is a better solution than Facebook-Style Micropublisher since FBSMP relies on Statuses module and both modules are not very stable yet and also they serve for a more specific purpose. Opengraph Filter does only that what you need.
