Google NewsGoogle announced that when you access Google News on a tablet device, such as an iPad or Nexus 7 or Nexus 10 - you will get a customized news experience designed for a tablet.

The changes include:

  • You can find new articles, news sources, and even topics of interest with intuitive gestures. To learn more about the browsing experience, see here.
  • Swipe horizontally between sections – from Business to Entertainment, for example - or tap "Explore in depth" to see multiple articles and other info related to a particular story. More on personalization here.
  • Also added more breathing room between articles, making it easier to spot the stories you really care about.M

I personally see it now and you are greeted with instructions on how to use it. Here they are:
