OK then, flipping

I blog early. Sometimes news breaks later. Today, following my ode to scrolling, Google introduced an experiment called Fast Flip. Try it out. It is scrolling but sideways — that is called ‘flipping’ apparently. It works better on the iPhone than on a computer; although I think the best computer layout is to click on articles full screen. But the good news is it does to newspaper articles what they should be doing to themselves; just pick a newspaper and fly.

  1. Surely that’s not the biggest newstory breaking in your world today.

    It’s a testament to the amount of NBN info I get on here that my first thought on seeing Conroy’s Telstra breakup comments was “I wonder what Gans et al will say”…
