The streaming news disrupter: Skygrid

There's a new kind of news stream company that's taking on the big guys like Bloomberg, Associated Press, Google News, and others. Their iPad app is a real hit, featured by Apple and on the top of the download lists. Why? Because there are sizeable changes in how news gets distributed and here I talk with Skygrid CEO Kevin Pomplun about these industry changes and how the iPad is changing everything.

Skygrid blew me away enough that I ordered an iPad right after watching this. Great project. Can't wait to try it.

Apple should acquire Skygrid right now, as it works like a mash-up of Google News and Twitter.

I am currently working on a Streaming Platform idea that would be like Skygrid on steroids? Can't say anymore than that?

Still waiting for the iPad to hit Australia. Skygrid will be my fist app. Thanks Scobie. Safari on ipad 5th most used browser. That's incredible & exciting.

A very ingenious idea and tied to the iPad? Not bad at all. Perfect for the content consumers who want to see information on what they like.
