Description
Named Apple's iPad App of the year and one of TIME's Top 50 Innovations, Flipboard creates a personalized magazine out of everything being shared with you. Flip through your Facebook newsfeed, tweets from your Twitter timeline, photos from Instagram friends and much more.
Fill Flipboard with the things you like to read, from niche blogs to publications like Rolling Stone and Lonely Planet, and use Instapaper or Read It Later to save articles to read later. Flipboard creates a single place to enjoy, browse, comment on and share all the news, photos and updates that matter to you.
In addition to Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, you can flip through your newsfeeds and timelines from Google Reader, LinkedIn, Tumblr, Flickr and 500px on Flipboard.
New to Flipboard on iPhone is Cover Stories, a selection of interesting articles and photos being shared with you right now. And it gets smarter every time you use it.*
*Coming soon to iPad.

Customer Reviews
Great concept and execution.
I have been using this app for a week or two now, it it has quickly become a daily obsession for me. I generally do not read the news and rely on StumbleUpon to find my reading/entertainment for the day. Flipboard has changed this for me. I love that you can customize the items that show up in your feed and organize them at will. The only thing that this app is missing is the ability to tag articles to read later. I constantly flip to a good read only to be distracted by something and then not be able to find it again to finish reading or to share. Please add a favorites feature, and maybe even the ability to have your favorites show up as a category. Otherwise, great app!
Awesome
Apple needs to buy these guys out and make it part of the factory image for the iPad.
