Editions by AOL for iPad News App is Interesting but Feels Like a Beta
TechCrunch describes Editions by AOL for the iPad as trying to stake a position somewhere between The Daily’s all-original (and expensive) reporting and Flipboard‘s endless pages of prettified RSS feeds and social streams However, after playing with the free app for a while, I would say it looks a lot like Flipboard but without any of the social news curation. And, while the app draws content from professional news organizations like ABC, CBS and the Washington Post, it lacks (by design) the editorial focus of The Daily.
Editions by AOL says that linking the app to Facebook, Twitter or AOL/AIM (what?) lets you “Connect your social networks to customize Editions with stuff you care about and to easily share articles with friends and family.”
