Was the iPad presented as the savior magazines, here’s an app that will seriously undermine that position again: Flipboard. What it does is gather all the links people share you follow through social media, and present this in a magazine like format. Finally the overload of information you are bombarded with is bundled in a comprehensible manner. Just check out the movie.
Just subscribe to your favorite blogs and you don’t even need RSS feeds anymore. Can’t wait to get my hands on this!
Great things are usually very simple. Check out the movie below on two products based on this simple-mantra. Two of mankind’s greatest inventions now put together.
Sometimes you bump into companies that create amazing things you’d wish you’d had discovered years earlier. Pixelcase is one of these companies. These guys make awesome virtual tours in great quality. Anything is possible, from simply displaying your house to aerial tours over your city. All images are viewable from 360 degrees. Just click the image above to see an example. Great stuff, but not unique. I agree.
The cool thing is, that their images are now available for iPhone/ iPad too. And their technology is right at home on these devices. Making optinal use of the multi touch screen, this is how it always should have been. Just get your iPhone/ iPad, surf to this page and enjoy. I wonder whether they can make these images interactive/ clickable. I’m already thinking of building websites and application based on these 360-images.
It’s official: The iPad is coming our way! Apple has just revealed the long awaited device. As you can see it is a big iPhone, which according to Apple will fill the gap between the iPhone and the MacBook.
Browsing, email, photos, e-books, and videos are the main functions it’ll do better than an iPhone and with a lot more apps on the way it sure looks promising. Especially as a gaming device and an e-reader I think it’ll be very successful. I think the biggest news for Apple is that they are introducing the iBook-store. Just as iTunes and the App Store this will be a very fruitful business for them.
In the US it will be available together with a subscription from AT&T for all the mobile browsing. With prices starting at $499,- for a basic version up to $829,- for the full swing 64gig-3G version.
Besides all the technological coolness you just have to agree with me that Apple has once again delivered a market changing and massively good looking device. Well done Steve!
