I have tested and tried many social media managing tools and apps and have yet to come across one that has served me as well as I had hoped, so I, like many of you have had to resort to using multiple managing tools for various social networks. *right eye twitching*
We like our time, it is as precious as the LOTR’s ring and we do not like it wasted, nor do we want to spend hours trying to remain managing our time just to keep being active and engaging on our social networks, whether it is for work or for play.
I bow down to Flipboard, an app that allows you to manage various social networks, read chosen content from across the web and enables you to add your blog’s RSS Feed and it’s… here comes the magic word… wait for it… FREE!
At first you will feel as though you have fallen down the rabbit hole, overwhelmed by the shocking ability to do so many wonderful things and it is made simple, Flipboard literally allows you to flip through content and directly from the app you are able to like on Facebook (including pages), LinkedIn and Tumblr, +1 a post, retweet (with or without a comment) and keep updated by watching YouTube videos from your account without leaving the app.
You are also able to create boards of content that you find interesting and then share it to your social networks. The best part is being able to add your RSS feed to Flipboard so others who use the app can see your content and it gives yet another place for your content to get seen and possibly shared.
*deep breath*
If you have a Smartphone, this is a godly app that you must immediately drop what you are doing and add to your phone. It will save your life… okay I went to the dramatics on that last part… but it will definitely save you time… my precioussss.
It’s my favorite app on both the iPad and Android. Twitter Lists make it really interesting.
