Unsolicited thoughts on blinks from working on frames: 1:1 images can be very heavy. A blink with a large image and some UI components can easily fill all the vertical space on my device. Not as bad if you see them infrequently, but compact UI is nice. Good name, because they kinda "blink" into the DOM.

Unlike frames, every blink I've tried links to a real, working website, since blinks "upgrade" the link rather than use it as a fallback. This is nice. More configurable inputs beyond four buttons are nice, as is allowing a little text in the UI. However, you can always count on someone to push UI to its limits:

When a link doesn't blinkify, it's hard to know why. (But also hard to notice since it just falls back to a normal link) Like frames, they can be hard to go back and find after seeing them in feed. (I'm not convinced this is bad for either frames or blinks, though).
