Site to reproduce feel of flipping through magazine
Google has rolled out a redesign of its Google News portal that is meant to reproduce the feel of flipping through a magazine when viewed on a tablet. The new design takes advantage of the touch interface on tablets to allow users to swipe through sections or tap "Explore in depth" to see multiple articles and content related to a particular story. The redesign also adds additional space between articles to help reading ease and identification of important stories.
