Flipboard:
A reason to buy an iPad?!

July 21, 2010 Leave a comment

Oh god. I literally never thought this day would come (at least until iPad Mark II). Having watched the beautifully produced Flipboard video, I have found myself wanting an iPad! Flipboard is a social application which aggregates all of your social networking data into a digital magazine format. The execution looks sublime, with Facebook, Twitter, flickr and other feeds that are relevant to you, smoothly integrated into what looks like a wonderful user experience. One of my truly favourite examples to date of the convergence of mobile and social. Take a look for yourself.

    I couldn’t agree more!

    I’d love to see how well this actually works, but if it works as well as the video shows, I’m going to be wanting an iPad now :-(
