I’m sure the newspapers are hating Google Labs’ new Fast Flip user interface but at least they are sharing revenue . I like visualizations. The current user interface of search portals and websites in general are certainly in their nascent iterations. For Fast Flip, Google went for the grid user interface hey… it really works for tastespotting.
It remains to be seen if it works for Google. Here’s how Google explains the site:
“Google Fast Flip is a web application that lets users discover and share news articles. It combines qualities of print and the Web, with the ability to “flip” through pages online as quickly as flipping through a magazine. It also enables users to follow friends and topics, discover new content and create their own custom magazines around searches.”
