Meet Flipboard.

How do I check my Twitter, Facebook, Blogs, and News quickly each day?  I use Flipboard on my iPad to quickly flip through what is new!  I love the Magazine-like feel to this great app.

Beautifully designed for iPad and iPhone, 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, sounds from SoundCloud and much more.  As promised,  Flipboard recently launched an Android version of its news reader.  

Also announced was the partnership with Google+ and YouTube.  Users can add their Google+ account to Flipboard and see stories in their stream, updates from people in their Circles, and posts from pages they subscribe to, in a magazine-like format.  Flipboard fans will also be able to watch YouTube videos from friends and subscribers, add comments, like, share, or subscribe right from Flipboard.

Fill Flipboard with the things you like to read, from blogs to publications like Rolling Stone. Visit your account on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. You can flip through your newsfeeds and timelines from Google Reader, LinkedIn, SoundCloud, Tumblr, and Flickr, on Flipboard as well.

Flipboard creates a single place to enjoy, browse, comment on and share all the news, photos and updates that matter to you.  Check it out today: http://flipboard.com/
