Here’s the effect it’s had on me in my couple of months using it in beta: I tend not to follow too many people on Twitter for the content they share, and in a typical Twitter client, I tend to gloss over links and images. Flipboard gives me such a nice way to read this stuff, I use it as an auxiliary client, just for the linked content. Turns out there’s some interesting stuff hidden behind all those ugly short URLs and yfrogs.

I tend to be pretty skeptical about Apple evangelism (even more so about app evangelism), but Adam’s Flipboard video looks like my dream method of interacting with Internet content. Of course, anything looks good with that twinkly “we’re making the world a better place” background music. Here’s to scraping together the cash for an iPad just before the next gen makes it obsolete.
