Barb really likes the iPad. She took it to a conference (leaving the laptop home) and had a great experience. Last week we loaded her music and pix and got her a wireless keyboard. I was pretty sure it was just one more device I could get by without. Until I saw Flipboard.
UPDATE: Okay. I have the iPad and configured my Twitter stream in Flipboard. And quickly determined that this is NOT an app I’ll use a lot. It is fun to browse the tweets of the people I follow but that’s about all I can do. You can’t copy text from the Flipboard browser. If all I ever did was just browse, read and retweet, Flipboard would be a good way to do those things. For my money, Pulse is a much better app.
UPDATE: Looks like there’s some question about the legality of Flipboard.
Great heavens! Can it be that the majority of folk are just vast sinks craving entertainment?
