Jakarta - Google memperkenalkan cara baru mereka dalam menampilkan berita-berita dari internet. Berbagai situs web ditampilkan bagai majalah. Fitur bernama Google FastFlip itu diperkenalkan secara resmi dalam gelaran TechCrunch50 di San Francisco, 14-15 September 2009.

FastFlip, fitur yang masih dalam pengembangan di GoogleLabs, akan menampilkan berita-berita dari berbagai situs web dalam format layaknya majalah. Halaman sebuah artikel ditampilkan lengkap dengan layout aslinya dan bukan hanya kutipan judul seperti Google News saat ini.

Di halaman FastFlip, berbagai artikel itu disusun berjajar bagaikan susunan majalah pada sebuah rak di toko buku. Pengguna kemudian bisa melihat-lihat sepintas pilihan yang ada dengan mengklik tanda panah di sisi setiap baris.

Untuk melihat lebih dekat, pengguna bisa melakukan zoom ke sebuah artikel. Isi artikel itu kemudian bisa dibaca, meskipun tidak sepenuhnya. Untuk membaca sepenuhnya, pengguna harus mengklik halaman 'majalah' yang ditampilkan dan akan dibawa ke halaman asli situs berita yang dimaksud.

Seperti dikutip detikINET dari TechCrunch, Selasa (15/9/2009), nantinya FastFlip akan menampilkan iklan. Rekanan Google yang berpartisipasi dalam program ini tentunya akan mendapatkan bagi hasil.

Beberapa media besar telah menjadi rekanan awal Google. Ini termasuk TechCrunch, BusinessWeek dan New York Times.
