Like a print magazine, Fast Flip lets you browse sequentially through bundles of recent news, headlines and popular topics, as well as feeds from individual top publishers. As the name suggests, flipping through content is very fast, so you can quickly look through a lot of pages until you find something interesting.
You can flip through news based on sources, topics, sections and popularity. Once you open a story you will see a big image of the chosen cover and left-right arrows to flip through related content. Google makes news' reading faster by catching them as images. This way, once inside a story, Fast Flip will load upcoming stories in the browser's cache thus avoiding a 'Loading...' message.
As this system consists in saving images, sometimes relevant content might be cropped out. In those cases you can click on the cover and go to the news' source.
If you are using Fast Flip with your Google account, you can 'Like' stories which will be saved to your profile. There also is an 'Email' option.
