Hi there
I'm resently obsessed with the Page flip effect,yes I did use the word "obsessed" from a enthusiast's view. In brief, page flip is a special effect that makes reading online more like reading a real book. So many brilliant jobs have been done in this area, I just list the typical ones, and hope this would help any of you.
