2010-12-30
hey guys it's brandon minimun from pocket now calm a 3d web browser has been released for Windows Phone 7 and in this video we're going to take a look at it let's get started are you okay so let's talk about this 3d web browser and we're going to talk about why you would want a 3d web browser in the first place it is called surf cube it is one dollars and ninety-nine cents and you can get it in the Windows Phone 7 marketplace and let's talk about how it's actually 3d so a problem that you have in a typical mobile web browsers that in order to access settings you have to press buttons and press the menu button and things like that it's not very natural what if you could gesture to do most things what if you could kind of tilt down the screen if you want to quickly jump to a certain link that is how this browser works so right now you saw that I've just tilted it down and I'm going to tilt it back to get right here to pocketnow.com but it doesn't only tilt sort of top to bottom you can tilt it from bottom to top and this is a tab function that will be coming in a future future version of surf cube and we can bring it back so again you're not diving into settings or a menu to get to your favorites you're just kind of flipping your finger we can also swipe the 3d cube over here to the left to Swift swivel the cube the other way and get into the settings and it's not always the most responsive thing ever but it's usually pretty good and of course we can go into landscape to take a look at the page this is using the IE rendering engine so pages load fast pinch to zoom is extremely responsive so there are no problems there so let's tap on this and just take another look at how things look when they load and when pages are loading you can see sort of the address bar in the 3d plane but of course you can pivot all the way down to see it in its full full glory there so its pivot again and something interesting to note about this web browser is that when you're panning and tilting around this cube you have to start your finger off the screen if I tilt down right here it doesn't actually flip the cube I have to start above and then I bring it down and from there you can do you can do the rest so a pretty cool concept not sure it's worth a dollar in 99 but at least it gives you a new sort of wave to control your browsing experience a little bit more intuitive once you get to learn the gestures then say the standard stock browser built into Windows 17 again it's called surf cube and it's available in the market for a dollar ninety-nine cents you like this video please give it a thumbs up and thanks for watching that's it for now
