Every now and then there comes an exciting app from a developer. In this case, the latest app is called Flipboard for the iPad. This what they call “the world’s first social media magazine” and has been making some huge waves on the Internet since its release last night. The best part about Flipboard? It’s currently a FREE download!
Here’s the description:
Flipboard is the world’s first social magazine. Your Flipboard is a fast, beautiful way to flip through news, photos and updates your friends are sharing on Facebook and Twitter. And it’s an incredible place to discover fresh content from around the Twittersphere.
Flipboard brings the timeless layout of print media to social media. No more scrolling through long lists of posts and links. No more jumping back and forth between websites. Your Flipboard is everything you care about in one place. It’s your magazine. It’s your Flipboard.
