Google has just launched "Fast Flip" at the TechCrunch 50 technology conference in San Francisco.  Fast Flip is a web based application that allows users to browse quickly through news stories from the websites of Google's three dozen partners.  

Google Fast Flip

This is cool..  I just checked it out.   You view just the opening headline and the front page of the article and you can quickly "flip" to the next article.  The articles are sorted into by topic or source or what is popular.

I am a media and news junkie and I found this a quick a easy way to absorb a lot of information and to find articles that interest me.

What is also interesting is that Google is sourcing the content from partners who will share in the revenue and this will drive users to the websites of the partner.  This seems fairer that just aggregating news stories in the case of Google News.
