One of the most common problems which readers face with reading news online today is that browsing is really slow. A media-rich page downloads really slow and can take as much a 10 seconds to load over broadband, this can be very frustrating. What we really need is a way where we can just flip through articles really fast without any delays, just as we can in print. Google thought about this problem and has come up with a solution for it.

Google’s latest projects is its new Fast Flip content browser, this browser can ideally be used to put newspapers and magazines online. Google’s Fast Flip is a new reading experience that combines elements of print and online articles. Fast Flip lets you browse sequentially through bundles of latest news. As the name suggests, flipping through content gets really fast and you can quickly go through a lot of pages.

So far, with couple of exceptions, the reviews of Google’s Fast Flip experiment have been quite measured. This means that the love- hate relationship between the publishers and Google is being renewed. Fast Flip will be very popular to computer users who have very limited computer skills; it offers quick and easy way to read articles similar to how a reader would read a newspaper.
