Flipboard iPad App
Every once in a while, something comes along that makes you just go "yeah, that's what it should be like". The iPhone is a great example of this. As it happens, I did the Stanford iPhone Application Programming course on iTunes U taught by Evan Doll and Alan Cannistraro. I'd been following Evan on Twitter and yesterday he announced a free iPad app he has been working on called Flipboard. I had one of those "that's how it's supposed to be" moments where everything just clicks. The iPad is great for reading, especially magazine-like content with video. But Twitter clients for example tend to visually treat all content the same. Flipboard draws together many social media sources and presents it in a magazine-like format. It is really quite stunning. Check out their video or give it a try yourself.

Looks like they are having capacity problems. Might take them a few days to get things sorted out. It's worth the wait IMHO.
