Save and Share Your Favorite Articles With Flipboard 2.0

Flipboard version 2.0 has been released for iOS devices (Android users will have to wait another month). The upgrade allows users to save their favorite articles, photos, audio and video in folders called "Magazines". Users can keep their magazines private or share them with family and friends via Twitter or email.

Creating a magazine is easy: Just tap the + button at the bottom of any article and write a title and description for your magazine. Your magazine and saved articles will then be stored under the "My Flipboard" panel in the Options Menu. To share a magazine, just tap its cover under the "My Magazines" section, and select share. This is a great tool for saving articles you don't have time to read or finish reading.

Flipboard is a must have iOS app that allows you to keep updated on various topics that interest you. Categories like News, Entertainment, Sports and so on are divided into boards featuring various news sources you can flip through. You can also incorporate your Twitter or Facebook news feeds into the app. Flipboard is great way to stay on top of subjects you love, and the perfect time killer for long lines, office visits, or public transportation. The universal iOS app is free to download from the App Store. Version 2.0 requires iOS 5 or higher.
