[Testing] Info slice version 8

[Tabitha Roder]

attached image (assume this will be stripped out of testing mail but
hopefully you get it James)
I dont get the browse one, just the info slicer icon in the journal, tried
changing info slicer activity name, hence the second one in journal. nothing
monochrome.
In browse activity under books we see other books but not ours. No info
slicer activity either in the browse books bit.
