Google Viewer is nifty. When I did a vcr (IE only sorry)for search results, I used a sidebar frame. I think my time controller, while it never got all the kinks out, is superior in allowing a full range of pages-per-minute, rather than a 1-second scale modify widget. Now, we just need the thing to have thumbnails and a quick way to switch from GViewer to the result list and back again. I'll have to put updating the search result version for Mozilla.

I don't know whether to be dismayed or enthralled at the prospect of an rich media ad-oriented delivery platform on tablets. On one hand, a dedicated presentation layer tends to improve usability -- on the other hand, this kind of power play in client software tends to steal aspects of user control.
