Flipboard Social Magazine for Apple iPad brings together News, Facebook and Twitter

A new app for the iPad makes big waves. KPCB backed Start-up Flipboard began a quest today to transform how people discover and share content by combining print with the power of social media.

Flipboard announced the immediate availability of its Flipboard App for iPad, a social magazine that brings to life the stories, photos, news and updates being shared across Twitter and Facebook.

Flipboard creates a magazine out of your social content. Simply launch Flipboard and 'flip' open the cover to get started. From the Table of Contents readers can view their sections and personalize the magazine.
The Facebook and Twitter sections let readers quickly flip through the latest stories, photos and updates from friends and trusted sources. Because Flipboard renders links and images right in the magazine, readers no longer have to scan long lists of posts and click on link after link - instead they instantly see all the stories, comments and images, making it faster and more entertaining to discover, view and share social content.

The free Flipboard app for the iPad is available now on iTunes or on the Flipboard site.
