Flipboard is not only very pretty but it is a fantastic way to follow news, people and social media. It presents stories to you as visual summaries that you can flip through easily, skip, skim or pause to read. It’s one of those apps that you should add to the Android tablet or iPad right after you rip the Christmas wrapping paper.
It’s free. You can grab the iOS app, Android, Windows Phone and BlackBerry. You don’t need the app to read the magazines – you can read via your web browser.
Flipboard Magazines take content from all around the web, put them together in a single place and share them with like minded readers. They’re a great way for you to up with hobbies.
