Cover Flow View to a Kill

I really should limit myself to only one Mac post per month but today is just accidental. In creating the previous post, I noticed Apple had updated its Web site. Far enough. About time really. Then I noticed Steve Jobs Keynote address - which I inevitably clicked. During Jobs address he showed a demo of a new Finder view - Cover Flow - similar to their iTunes cover flow view (I realize Apple did not invent this - I think this guy did) but it's a brilliant leap of faith in something that I assume has become so popular only because it's so fun. I don't think it will be long before it is standard on iPods (is it already?) I can't tell you how many times I've gone into full screen mode using the cover flow view for no other reason than it pleases me. Ah the simple pleasures of a fully functioning user interface.
