Google's Newest Addition

No it is not the Nexus One. It is something much smaller. It’s FastFlip the newest search app that you can use to browse topics by flipping through small web page visuals. Google hopes that by loading these little thumbnails in a slider for you to thumb through horizontally you will be visually attracted or cued to the topics and get a better feel for or preview of the venue that delivers the information. Of course this is just in test mode at fastflip.googlelabs.com. But I tried it and it was super fast at loading what seemed like a never-ending stream of related webpages.

There is even a mobile version which I downloaded to my iphone by just visiting the fastflip site on the phone and signng in to my account and typing in my search.
Here is how it worked on my phone and boy was it fast here too:
