Flipboard is a ‘personalized, social magazine’ for the iPad. Released today, and free, it might just be the first real killer app for Apple’s touchscreen device.
Mixing Twitter, Facebook and websites together may not be brand new, but Flipboard does it beautifully. The interface is gorgeous, and makes reading and navigating a joy. Their servers seem to be struggling at the moment, making it difficult to sign in to Facebook and Twitter, but it’s still worth downloading. I can totally imagine this becoming what I browse over breakfast. We’ll have a full review up soon, but for now here are some screenshots.
