Meet Flipboard.

[thetealeafXO]

I'm getting an iPad 2 this christmas, and I know the FIRST app I get will be this one :D

Also, does Flip Board provide other columns and articles other than what my friends are posting?

[InsideFlipboard]

@thetealeafXO Christmas will be here soon! :) Yes, you can add a lot more to your Flipboard than just what your friends post. We have categories full of great suggestions like National Geographic, Rolling Stone, The New Yorker, The Economist and so on. Plus you can search for even more! It's very customizable. Let me know if you have questions when you have your iPad, I'm @FlipboardCM on Twitter.

[Mickstah]

Android?

[metallibro]

Background music is the cover of the song ---> "Flim" - Aphex Twin. Very cool :)

[CNUanMan]

Dang. It's apps like this that REALLY make me want an iPad.

[Athlon2o0o]

You should make a Google Chrome Webapp for this.

[Zantor135]

You guys made the best app for Ipad to date. Sorry Infinity Blade but this app rocks.



[z3158755]

Hey it's the guy from Put This On

[uktech]

This app is FREE!.. Thank you. I love it along with the rest of my family,

[mattbologna23]

Bad Plus did a good cover of the song, but it's originally an Aphex Twin track from "Come to Daddy."

[c4rlob]

I LOVE that they used the Bad Plus song "Flim" for the background music.

[boxweasel]

@c4rlob I think you mean their cover of the Aphex Twin song. Original is better.

[SoreThumbSociety]

No iPhone 4 version?! Come on! Smaller screen yes, but many more pixels to make.. flip-whatever- shine. By the way, went over to Best Buy today to check out the iPad2. Resolution isn't very stunning, & I'll add that both camera's are fairly poor. iPhone 5 is on the way soon guys, would be foolish to exclude millions of us small-screened iOS users.

In addition, my revised long-term 2011 iForecast, after playing on the new iPad, is this: Thud. Yawn. Repeat. IMO, wait for the 3rd generation pad

[InsideFlipboard]

@SoreThumbSociety We recently announced that we are working on an iPhone version, due out this summer.

[musemic80]

@InsideFlipboard is it coming out anytime soon? i am really looking forward to it.

[cheeyi93]

Awesome vid :) with nice effects. I love Flipboard!

[topheecheesecake]

The music is "Flim" by the Bad Plus. Originally by the amazing Aphex Twin. :)

[kiermel]

I love the iPad version is the best I've seen ;-)

[icoopers]

Stunning iPad! Love it!

[DantendoDS]

I really wish this was for the new iphone and ipod 4g

[curtoegrosso]

@boxlightbox Agreed. But it gets a lot funnier if you imagine that is Zach Galifianakis talking that way.

[SmashinGit]

This makes me want to get an iPad.

[bernardvukas]

I love the Aphex Twin remix in the background.... Awesome!! :D

[MaxCandies]

He looks so enthusiastic.

[cellodad808]

What fascinates me is the possibilities that this medium has for education, learning and teaching. Imagine what a high school teacher could do with with a simple means of aggregating relevant content from multiple sources and distributing to students.

[soulrunna]

Oh my, I love this asian girl.

[eurobook2009]

good

[Loki11467]

My question is does it collect everything? Because I don't want everything. And since I follow over 600 people on Twitter it means about 1000 items per day will be on my flip board. Which really makes it useless because I can't browse all that stuff everyday. If I can pick and choose items via say Twitter by choosing specific people I follow or bookmarking specific Tweets then its perfect.

[dpmduran]

CUTE...cute..very cute and the app is also interesting!

[BaselXXX]

Wait a second, so this is an app that depends on your friends to keep you informed? My friends are all lame and vain. They post Lil Wayne videos and articles about stuff that I'm not interested in.

[GlobalEctropy]

Heard about this last night on Charlie Rose and wanted to see. Love it!! When is a tablet pc version coming??!!!

[EdouardMadec]

Great video. Looks like a great app too.

[upemorygsu]

I want to use this for course content!

[paulc206]

I love the idea. We'll see how it works. The toughest part about using social networks to filter content is that not all my friends are equal. Some are on my list because they are awesome friends but good lord NO I do not want to see yet another link to failblog, thanks. So, besides the heavy lifting of aggragating and presentation, this will work best for me if it also has a way to tag, filter, rate, prioritize, etc. the sources

And it my dreams it caches stuff and works offline. :)

[ghostd0wn]

these guys funded or wat cuz this vid looks classy

[dkddkddkd007]

dude, you should put down the Ipad and ask out that girl sitting next to you!

[vincentviga]

Music is cover of Flim by Aphex Twin from 1997.

[Luukweb]

ok. android version please. :]

[adamada68]

make one for ipod/iphone pleasee. then it could be a more portable magazine.

[chicagodeath]

Hang on a sec, "Music: "Flim," by The Bad Plus"? Shouldn't Aphex Twin have a credit in there somewhere?!

[maurizioADD]

I like it

[stratman7000]

i want one soo bad too

[ilmg90]

AWESOME VIDEO!!!

[jxfry]

Cool app! How much does it cost, and does it ONLY work on iPads? (god I hate that name)

[EddyRuxpin]

Minority Report! O_O What great use of the iPad. I agree with those who said feed reader integration should be a part.. Then this could be a game changer for sure, if given enough shine...

[iamjoekalicki]

I like the piano version of Flim in the background.

[Fritzborrego]

Nice idea

[iaoth]

@boxlightbox It's Adam Lisagor aka lonelysandwich. If you listen to his podcast (You Look Nice Today), interviews or his other pitches (such as Square), you'd find he's just a mellow kind of guy.

[christianvz]

Nice bike in the background.. i like!

[Fantasmo81]

@retread01

Since I've never been to San Fransisco...What is SF like? Hearing of it it reminds me only of cable cars in great funny 70s crime series.

[MugenXX01]

@jeremyisreallyawesom please tell your sister to add tumblr, flickr and rss (my own feeds) support :)

[marcelnz]

very cool indeed.

[PaulHassing]

Wow! Very slick indeed. :)

[VisualSight]

This is a fabulous app.... you guys have made it so easy for us to keep up with all these social network stuff. I also love this commercial the way the guy reaches up and grabs sites... well done! Because it feels just like that! You have created what I think is the perfect app for iPad. Thank you!

[guidobiondi]

cool

[jeffdaly1975]

Adam Lisagor is a frickin genius. I love his videos. I bought the iPhone Birdhouse app after watching his video about it, knowing I might not even use it much (because I don't tweet much at all) but just because the video was so damn good.

[robert578]

good stuff

[nitturo]

Android version is very welcome! :)

[billaddison82]

the app is alright, in that it looks and feels cool. Def needs RSS or Google reader integration. Also needs some vertical scrolling in the flipboard. They did a great job at hyping the launch, good coverage.

[ktbeatty]

Very, very cool app that was launched too soon. They don't' have the infrastructure to support the user base. However, this is the future of Twitter feeds.

[yujean44]

omg dude... genius

[L4ckMaster]

Stromberg Theme Music :D

[MegaEmman]

Still not gonna get one till it has a camera

[JPRamon68]

WOOF!

[StefderChef1]

wow the music is from a german comedy series , its called stromberg (:

[chuydrum1]

Apple rules!

HATERS!!!

[Pele137]

@sxewas it's a free app.

[TheAlexanderProject]

wow - he seems very enthhusiastic about it all

[18512363]

muy bueno!!!



[TrafficIsGold]

I didn't want an iPad until I saw this.... thanks guys!

[beachbum625]

WOw, he's REALLY excited!

[AmidProcrastination]

I love how low-key this commercial is, lol

[psphaxzor19]

Guys hate all you want. Sure these things might be expensive and similar to earlier tech but hey if I had the money I would jump on one(not literaly).

[FLWE11]

Die Musik hört sich an wie von stromber! :D

[TheHumanDwight12]

I loooooooooooooove mi iPad!*_____*

[HARRYRUDD3355]

Flip board is great get it it's free

[Cocoblu2]

He looks psyched!!! ;)

[0zZChrysosZz0]

auf den ersten blick dacht ich es wär sido :D der da labert

[dodo309]

This is a very innovative idea. I never thought browsing my social networks could be that very snappy !!!

[Onlyonerofl]

Well done great app I gonna get it I love people who spend there time to make a great app

[lelandb123]

LONELY SANDWICH!

[petmask]

Die Musik erinnert mich an Stromberg...

[iDriveUCrazy17]

I don't think he's bored..he's just totally relaxed/at ease with this new technology in his hands..I mean, anyone who has an iPod isn't gonna flip through their apps going ":D!"

[bizzmpp]

Square. Put this on. etc - he's a comedian from SF so it makes sense.

[senordongato505]

iPad haters galore... now there's a group that needs to get a life. Neat concept, going to definitely check this app out. Now carry on with your tantrums haters.

[ShynePoe33]

I might start using Twitter and Facebook now :)

[Overcastkid747]

@ProjectWander The whole facetime shtick is OLD.

That videocalling and such has been around for YEARS!

The touchscreen was innovated by apple, but not created by, and now it's been reinnovated by HTC and blown away... The firmwares are decent at best...

The "folders" are nothing new.

I'll give them credit on the screen resolution, but seriously they "say" it's easy to read a book on there... It's not.

Multitasking is a gimme, and should have been with the first one, screw apple.

[brendanmccue]

@RonLussierLenscraft He did the video for Square.

[1990trssho]

The guy who does the corporate commercial for Flipboard: ,is the same guy who sold me on square for the iPhone:

When I signed up for Square, I gave my SSN and other personal info.

[Trollinista]

This ap is freaking amazing. The best part is when you go to the net and finish stories, you can go right back to the ap without ever really leaving the ap.

[ssllgg11]

Everything is simply too complicated these days. If I like something all my friends need to know about it through 10 different media and recieve 20 other suggestions.

[noobzorimbatt]

i don't even have facebook, twitter, etc. How can i use it (sad)?

[Villex93]

Amazing

[swtxwishes]

I like how his voice is SOOO calm talking about something SOOO cool.

[Damecki]

really shocking how he ignores his friends standing left and right to him :D

[klauskauker]

Stromberg !!!

[NinjaDarknessXx]

i love how all the related videos are of skateboards

[lucapaitro]

nice design, good concept!

[pepcycool]

am gonna buy This.. =) I hope so.. lol

[augustanyday]

@jonting91 liking stuff on facebook isn't about popularity. it's about feedback and distributing content.

[WhatMaxThinks]

that page turning is really annoying to me, anyone else?

[carbonation28]

lol. to tell ya the truth, that really doesn't seem that revolutionary. theres thousands of social networking softwares just like that out there, maybe not as pretty.

[seanseattlewa]

Film by Aphex Twin

[TheSeanWilson]

I think you just sold me the iPad.

[franklinTEturtle]

nice aphex cover

[mrtigerrr]

First thought, this video is so clear.

[prospectnyc]

Can it collect RSS feeds?

[radtwelve]

so coool!

[CarterCreative]

Nicely shot video for wonderful app I'm excited to get to know.

[gekko101]

youtube microsoft courier it destroys the Ipad any day.

[TheSeandroid]

@gekko101 The Microsoft Courier was never a real product, it was a concept created by Microsoft but it never amounted to more than a fake video and a lot of hype, Microsoft cancelled the project.

[Brianexe43]

oh man, i was like god damn, another 10 dollar app that should be free! and it is! worth getting

[allsports4]

sweet app!

[moutercore]

aphex twin

[Samuelisme]

the man is the guy in SQUARE!!

[Smurfed]

@yourweedsux “In the year 3000 YouTube, Twitter & Facebook will merge into one super time wasting website called YouTwitFace.”

[dkunha39]

Hum.. I've got some doubts about this application. Where is it getting the articles, from links shared from friends? But then it has to know how to read the contents from that site... I saw many articles from NYTimes, maybe it has a built-in parsers for big news sources. The problem will be when it has to read less known sites... In the extended video you can see HTML code presented within the article. By the way, excellent interface and user experience.

[wordsinmind]

I have seen absolutely no evidence that this is a phishing scam, and I have seen several reputable publications cheer this app, publications who would not risk endorsing a scam.

I realize it's a ridiculous expectation for people to be responsible with their comments, but don't post that something's a scam just because they ask for your information.

[truefictions]

Decentralize while you still can folks.

Peace

[bethie777]

Oh and for all the people enjoying Aphex Twin - they were born and grew up in the village I live in in Cornwall, and they even went to the same school as me XD not at the same time, obviously, hahaha XD isn't that cool?

[oiocat]

beardy nerdy guy, an ipad, a comfortable looking couch and sweet aphex twin in the background?

sign me in.

[cantydiamont]

Das ist die "Stromberg"-Thememusic!!! :)

[donal6343]

Very similar idea to newstwit co uk !

[modelsupplies]

This is AWESOME~! Now even I want an iPad =D

Like - Like - Like~!!

Anita @ModelSupplies

(Discovered via @Alyssa_Milano's tweet)

[ItsSchug]

Music is a live instrumental version of Film by Aphex Twin. Good choice. :)

[bootsonbeaches]

The actor is adam lisagor.  He aint no douchebag.

[ChateauOfADoubt]

I wish they made this available as a program I could use on my computer.

[brandoon111]

Downloaded it because Lonely sandwich likes it. I liked (OOOOH!) the video too...

[unabonger777]

sleepy beardo on an IKEA sofa.

[bealz]

Cool app. Hope they got permission to use Flim.

[bvp663]

Who is this bearded guy in all the new startup videos? Wasn't he in the Square vid?

[hlondono111]

Very cool app, like the easy flow and intuitiveness!!

[michaelleibrecht]

love it!

[bramachari]

The Asian Babe. . .Super Cute.

[bondfool]

God damn, Sandwich makes a good commercial.

[Radioboy]

WOOF

[YUPnNOPE]

Pretty cool

[DDrDark]

Nice app guys!

[danhendricks]

Sandwich in the house!

[mattb4rd]

Very nice.

[goldenbart]

@adamtaro Hell Yeah! Golden Comment Adam! You know you should do more comments to heaps of people in short form. If only there was an online way to spread your word wings.

[deweytann]

That's flippin awesome! (haaa I'm sure that hasn't been used before).... no seriously guys that's flippin' awesome! I knew I bought the ipad for a reason.

[gizmosachin]

This needs to be on the iPhone too.

[gizmosachin]

Looks brilliant. It's too bad your Twitter and Facebook servers aren't working at the moment.

[goldenbart]

The Aphex song Flim is one of my favourite songs. Great App you digital warriors. Charge on

[KungFuChess]

cool but why not just use the facebook app?

[fjvwing]

Manicure your finger before putting it in a shot huge, ok?

[albedo0point39]

How about privacy?

How do I know I can trust you with my Facebook and Twitter passwords? There muse be some way you're going to make money with this!

[CAlex6977]

Brilliant.

[tenserrrr]

the MTB on the background is "so yesterday."

[geradorzero]

Reminds me of Feedly.com.

[DeDiOk]

I saw this dude on a video before..

Some kind of twitter app or rss app for the iPhone.

Anyone know where to find this?

[kearnsey11]

@DeDiOk he's the guy ffrom the@square video I think

[DeDiOk]

@kearnsey11

Yeah, that's him but he was on another video too..

[VorteXLP]

@DeDiOk He's from the Square-app video ;) It allows you to make payments.

[sgg22]

@DeDiOk He developed Birdhouse for iPhone and is on a podcast called You Look Nice Today

[deldelgary]

Wow! Flipboard app for iPad. Your Social Media & News Info on steroids in a gorgeous magazine style layout with photography. Stunning app!

[HaxxBlaster]

The music is a acoustic version of 'Aphex Twin - Film'.

[dbreuning]

Wow this looks awesome! Will try this on my iPad tonight.

[dbalieiro]

I've dreamed about this for many years, long before iPhones, iPads and iOs. Simply makes sense and is required. Thank you. Please consider developing versions for the Mac OS ... [;)]

[thecorcorangroup]

This is incredible. What a simple, helpful, beautifully executed idea. Many congratulations to everyone at Team Flipboard.

[yasir25119918]

Awesome!!

[ianghowlett]

See, men with beards *can* have sexy friends!

[stivi619]

He is one high motherfucker

[bushwod]

He doesn't look like he would have friends!

[BroadKarnage]

Great looking app. Looks like the RSS reader for Mac called Times taken several steps further into your social network. Very clever thinking. Personally I like the ad too.

[patjack67]

Looks very cool. No need to ever need to go out again. At least he has a nice sofa and fairies in his room..

[paulsmerdon]

Very interesting concept.

[iskyonline]

the original version of this tune is "Flim" by Aphex Twin

[BoogsterSU2]

Is it free?

[jp240781]

I now have a reason to buy a iPad.

[feliciaday]

This looks great!

[Vlogable]

sickk

[nathanchase]

The Bad Plus! Nice choice...

[jagerific]

This might be my killer app for the iPad. I'm almost ready to go get one now!

[trinitel]

Wow. This will be something. A cornerstone iPad app.

[Trackstar064life]

Twitter didn't seem so happy sharing his stuff with you.lol. A great concept though. Thumbs Up

[psimac]

I'm diggin' Flipboard already. It's so much better than the old way. :)

[iPhoneAppsanity]

Awesome!
