Want to flip through newspaper and magazine pages fast, sampling the world press from your laptop? Goggle has just launched an experimental news hub called Fast Flip . It's sort of like flipping through the pages of publications at a newsstand. The site is organized by how popular (including recommendations and headlines), sections (such as "world," "health" and "opinion"), topics ("Serena Williams" and "swine flu") and sources (the publications that created the content).
The New York Times suggests that Google," long seen as a enemy by many in the news industry," is hoping to cast itself as media's friend by making it easier for readers to read newspapers and magazines. What do you think?

I like google Fast Flip it is my first time i hear of. i access the website i see that it allows readers to browse stories by topic, by publication or by "most viewed," "most popular" or even "recommended."
It shows only the first page of a story and users who want to read more have to click through to the website of the host publication. i like the idea that users can share content with friends or members of a social network and Google said it is offering a mobile version. It is interesting for me to have a mobile version in my BlackBerry to keep reading the news in my free time because While viewing articles, simply we can swipe left or right to flip between articles. this make me feels like reading a printed article in easy way. I dont think that google want to cast it self but it try to be more successful.

I think Google fast flip is easier than newspapers or magazines’ websites to see the latest news in the world. Personally, I don’t use the news website because sometimes I don’t find what I really want, but with Google fast flip I find what I want. In my opinion, the "New York times" considered Google fast flip as an enemy because the number of their viewers will be decrease. By the time, there will be no viewers. People want the easiest way to know the news.

In my opinion I think that Google Fast Flip is a HIT to all newspapers companies because it gives you what you need exactly with a click.
Google Fast Flip brings all the news that you are INTERESTED IN to your little screen without taking the effort to read all the newspaper until you reach your goal.
I think the NewYork Times should consider Google Fast Flip as their enemy because its getting more viewers.
thanks Dr. J
I liked it and just added it to my Bookmark Bar :D
I think that this is a great way to scan through the news. A person can quickly glance at the headlines and then decide which articles they are interested in reading. This gives people easy access to a number of newspapers, many topics and thousands of articles that provide a wealth of information and news worldwide.
Individuals can access major newspapers worldwide which may or may not be accessible within their own countries or online otherwise. This would be helpful for people who travel a lot and need to keep with worldwide events.

That's so interesting, effective and efficient!!
So much information in a single page , in which you chose the criteria of the news you desire to read about.
This is helpful for people who are around the world to read about news in which are not accessible in their country.
PLUS! It is easy for most people who use a SmartPhone Device to access Google Fast Flip!
I honestly think , out of all the Search Engines, Google brings the most innovative and effective ways for this particular search engine to work!
