This is an ongoing initiative aiming to revolutionize the traditional format of the academic paper in regard to three key elements: presentation, content and context. The 2 pane navigation and presentation features were released on January 7th. Mid 2012, the final part of the 3 pane format (contextual discipline-specific applications) will be added along with further improvements.
