This is no photoshop -- it really is an Android browser that lets you
tilt web pages, but there's more than meets the eye. The folks at
Access have just launched this free NetFront Life Browser, which packs
a few interesting features that caught our attention. Let's hold hands
and walk through them together. Upon launching the app for the first
time, we were taken to a "unified navigation" landing page that
consists of two sections: the top half displays live thumbnails of
opened windows, and swiping left or right gives you a smooth 3D
transition between them; whereas the bottom half shows you stacks of
pages à la Apple Time Machine for history, bookmarks, and
scrapbooks. Speaking of which, the scrapbook feature is also one of
the main -- and probably the funnest -- highlights here: this is where
you can store virtual cut-outs using the scissors tool at the bottom
right of the browser, thus creating pictorial bookmarks. If you want
to mark something specific on a page, then you can use the
checkmarking tool -- located right next to the scissors -- to do so,
but bear in mind that the marks will disappear if you close the page's
window (so it's fine as long as you keep it in the background).
