What I take from the post is that Google may set-up something which will allow people to pick and choose content, but most importantly it'll be littered with Adwords and if they get the right deals with publishers, there may even be adword-equipped full magazines available. Personally and at first blush, I don't know how revolutionary this concept will be because when you cut right down to it, the user will be most likely be choosing content and the Google technology is mostly going into the ads.
