I just saw another great example of animation guiding users through transitions. Check out how Chrome for mac animates new tabs on Command + T. It is fast, enhances the metaphor and makes all kinds of sense compared to adding new tabs in Safari. (which hogs cpu and freezes the window for a 3D-effect that adds absolutely nothing to the experience) Thanks for the feedback.

Though 0.5s is also quite slow. Btw I just have to say how much I love how Apple uses animation in OS X contrary to windows and linux. Win and Lin uses animation as a form of eye-candy while OsX uses animation to hide actual loading times. The effect is profound, but rarely used for some reason.
