Flipboard For iPad Provides Pages Of Content…Literally

As a loyal BlackBerry user, it’s hard to turn my nose back down toward the Apple “light”. But Flipboard had me at “Hello”. Dare I admit that I’m considering an iPad?

The iPad app turns the ‘fancy tablet reader/website viewer’ into a more useful tool. Flipboard sorts content from your Facebook and Twitter feeds into a flipboard grid — articles, images, videos, links — and allows you to flip through that content like pages in a magazine. In addition to having the ability to like and comment on those items, the app aggregates others’ tweets and comments into view as well.

If I had to choose one significant feature that Flipboard lacks, it would be updates across multiple social networking sites…think HootSuite. However, I’d have to assume that they’ve already got some new features in the works. There’s just so much potential here. Nicely done, Flipboard.

Download the Flipboard app from iTunes.
