Want to flip through online news in the same way you flip through a newspaper or magazine? Well Google Labs recently released an online tool called Google Fast Flip which allows you to do just that.
With Google Fast Flip you simply select the type of articles you want to view and then flip through them using the side arrows until you find an article you want to read. You can choose to see popular articles, article from a particular source, articles on a particular topic, or articles from a particular section e.g. business.
What’s great about Google Fast Flip is that it allows you to scan through news really quickly. What you see in Fast Flip is actually just an image of the article not the page itself, so it appears pretty much instantly (you don’t have to wait for a page to load). If you would like to go to the actual webpage you can simply click on the image in Fast Flip and the webpage will open in a new window.
Google Fast Flip also has Email, Like, and Share buttons so you can share articles with others and let Google know which articles are the best.
