Do you know what happens in an Internet minute? Six new Wikipedia articles are published, 20 million photos are viewed, Google processes more than 2 million search queries, 47,000 apps are downloaded, 204 million emails are sent … you get the point.
It goes to show you that there’s way more information online than any one person could hope to read in a hundred lifetimes. That makes keeping up with your favorite topics a chore, unless you’re interested in everything digital, of course.
Still, if you’re into politics, archaeology, space travel, sports or thousands of other topics, you can find yourself bouncing from site to site, or social network to social network, looking for the all the latest news that interests you. Luckily I know of a site that tries to change that.
The award-winning site Flipboard collects the news, articles and Web feeds you want into one place. Not only that, it presents it in a slick view so you don’t miss a thing.
You can read your Facebook and Twitter streams, publications like Rolling Stone, The New York Times, CNN, BBC, National Geographic and even things you’ve saved with Instapaper.
More interested in a topic than a specific publication? Flipboard has more than 34,000 topics you can choose from, and topical user-curated “magazines” you can follow. You’ll find everything from famous writers to treehouses, and anything else you can think of.
Even better, Flipboard has an accompanying app so you can take all this great news wherever you go. Click here to get it now.
Enjoy!
