When you do an image search, we find that it is typical that you will look through many pages of search results. So in the redesign of Google Image Search for mobile, available today for iPhone 3.0+ and Android 2.1 devices, we focused on making it easy to quickly see as many image thumbnails as possible:

  • The thumbnails are square to maximize the number of images we can get on the screen at one time so you can scan them quickly
  • You can swipe to see the next or previous page of results, or tap the large, stationary ‘Next’ and ‘Previous’ page buttons
  • We optimized for speed so that the images appear quickly when you browse

When it comes to viewing the images, we now make them as large as possible by introducing a special image viewing page:

  • The black background emphasizes the image and the buttons fade after a few seconds so you can just see images with little distraction
  • Easily browse through the images by swiping from picture to picture

However, Apple does not let iPhone users have access to the iBookstore just yet. Many publishers are publishing books in the both MOBI and EPUB formats.

I recently purchased some eBooks and wanted to get them onto my iPhone. There is no way to do this through iTunes. One way is to load these eBooks onto your Kindle and you can download the Kindle app from amazon onto your iPhone. I do not have a Kindle though and I was running out of ideas.

Then I came across Stanza. It’s an iPhone app and desktop application. What you do is download the app onto your iPhone and download the desktop application onto your computer. You can download Stanza for desktop here. Also search “Stanza” in your iPhone App Store and download the app for free.

What Stanza does is, takes the eBooks you have on your computer and through your wireless network shares them with your iPhone. Watch the video below to learn how to do upload eBooks to your iPhone with Stanza.
