#2I appreciate the idea behind this, and it's an excellent technical demonstration. Very impressive and all that.
I'd just like to, however, preempt anyone from thinking that this kind of thing is appropriate for books or texts of any sort. Can't select anything, can't hash-link through to a paragraph, have to wait for the transition, have to orient it right... it's not much fun. If you're looking for a UI for this kind of thing for whichever project you were going to do (most likely some menu for some restaurant), I'd much rather have the Kindle-approach apply.
No UI, just the book. It's lovely. It's liberating. Skeuomorphism usually deserves contempt. Not always. But usually.

"Can't select anything, can't hash-link through to a paragraph, have to wait for the transition"
so... flash! I always wonder why newer versions of html, css become more and more similar with what flash is. A new vision is needed.
