Apple's iPad app of the year, Flipboard, brings the best of your favorite websites to a sleek digital magazine with just a swipe of a finger. Flipboard is social and customized to you, a collection of news articles, blog posts, and videos based on what friends like on Facebook and tweet on Twitter, designed to make the most of the iPad.
The combination of these technologies really do represent a game changer for the world of publishing. Publishers can charge 10 times more for Flipboard ads than traditional web banners. A cut of that revenue going to Flipboard, there definitely an opportunity to create a multi billion dollar business here. High profile investors are on board including Twitter cofounder Jack Dorsey and Actor Ashton Kutcher.
Flipboard topped a million users in December, 5 months after it's launch. It's not of Apple's top 3 apps it plans to expand to other devices like smartphones and desktops this year. The Apple iPad continues to be a key in how technology is being developed and used in our daily lives.
