FUNNY! Click to Enlarge
Google unveiled its latest lab today, Google Play (http://www.google.com/reader/play/), a magazine-style RSS reader. It shows thumbnails along the bottom edge and the viewing window enlarges images and makes them more prominent. A slideshow mode also makes Play dissimilar from Google Reader. Play includes the ability to “like” an item, share an item and star an item for later viewing.
The recipe for Play seems to be two parts Google Reader, one part Google Fast Flip and one part StumbleUpon.
A touchscreen device would be the ideal platform for Play; readers could simply flick ahead to the next snippet. Perhaps this product was developed primarily for the upcoming touchscreen tablets.
I found the funny image [points up and to the right] using Play. One of the people I follow on Google Buzz shared it.
