Flipboard is very very cool
I find my iPad makes me read a lot more. Many people prefer books over e-readers. However, I for some reason am the opposite. In fact, my iPad makes my iPhone, more often then not, just a phone.
Flipboard is a 2.0 startup that went into beta last week. Response was so huge, their servers bombed almost instantly and they went offline to sort things out. Now it’s back out.
Flipboard is an iPad reader app, that hooks into your social networking products and displays links, tweets, status, photos in a magazine format that you just flick though. I can see this becoming the “must have” iPad application.

I love Flipboard as well. Would love to see a site like PlanetLotus support be transformed into a magazine format like Flipboard does.

Can you play Facebook games on the iPad?

@Phil – I would guess yes as you open facebook in a browser (browser interface is superior to the app).
I don’t play any facebook games at all.

Looks very cool. I signed up but haven’t been let into Facebook/Twitter yet. UI is compelling. Funny that I got followed by some Flipbook-like competitor the first time I mentioned them on Twitter.
