Plans Afoot to Include eBook Buying & Video Viewing in Flipboard for iPad

A little more than a year since Flipboard for the iPad launched, it has changed the way many people sort through news. It started out taking links from people a person follows on Twitter and Facebook and the expanding the links to display the actual news items in a magazine-like format. In this way, the people you like enough to follow on social networks curate news for you. Since then, it has grown to partner with featured content providers in addition to crowdsourced social network links.
