flipping book

Software designed to create online publications, online magazines and online photo albums that have a realistic page turning effect (complete with page turning sound), replacing flat traditional documents.

Not to be confused with a "flip book" or a "flick book," a book with a series of pictures that vary gradually from one page to the next, so that when the pages are turned rapidly, the pictures appear to animate by simulating motion or some other change.

Note: The term FlippingBook™ (with a capital F and a capital B) is a trademark.
