Wouldn't it be nice to have a tailor-made magazine with articles pulled in from your social media subscriptions? Graham and Stephanie take a look at Flipboard for the iPhone. Does it live up to the hype?

Flipboard is the latest news reader for the iPad, but this one has created a lot of buzz on the Internet due to it's unique ability to pull in and display stories, photos, and posts from your friends on Facebook and Twitter. Not only can you soak in the information supplied from the people you subscribe to, but you can also fully interact. Reply, Like, Comment, and Share all within Flipboard.

Though Flipboard is beautifully designed with creative layouts and smooth page transitions, it's not without flaws. Graham Hancock explains some of the app's shortcomings, such as truncated news stories and a less-than-easy account setup. This is a FREE app in iTunes, so give it a try and let us know what you think!
