Channel Surfing the Web
July 7th, 2008With version 1.7, PicLens is more popular than ever before! How come? One of the biggest reasons is the addition of Discover – channel surfing on your computer! As soon as you pull up PicLens, you’ve got the world’s media at your fingertips.
With channels like International News, Business, and Fashion/Lifestyle, Discover offers constantly updated, fully-captioned snapshots and video feeds from the best global news sources: Reuters, the Associated Press, ESPN, MSNBC, ABC, and more.
The media-rich environment is easily navigable, allowing you to slide through hundreds of news items in seconds using the 3D Wall to find the story that most interests you. Best of all, the new version now allows you to pop in and out of PicLens, so you can get the full story quickly and easily in your browser before sliding back to your channel surfing.

We’re hearing back from hundreds of users who have integrated Discover into their frequent news browsing breaks. It’s a great substitute for television, allowing you to quickly find the content that you think matters most, and is a great way to relax and stay “plugged in” in the midst of a busy schedule. Let’s hear what users have to say:
“The interface is amazing, it searches all the major media sites (photo and video) and makes it extremely easy and fun to find photos, watch news videos, or just entertaining videos. The interface is fast, intuitive, and beautiful. I found it easier and faster to find what I was looking for through PicLens compared to going directly to YouTube or Google.” — This Year
“I now use PicLens many times a day, throughout the day. For catching up on the news, it’s so much easier and faster than turning on the TV.” — Amy, a new user
“The real power of PicLens though is its “Discovery” section. This is where you can browse the news, sports, business and everything going on the web easily and quickly . . . If you want to see where the web is going, download this app now.” — Ty, blogger
What are you waiting for? Join numbers of PicLens users in revolutionizing the way the web is viewed. There’s a whole world of media out there, and there’s no faster or easier way to surf it than Discover.
