Flipboard is the world’s first social magazine. Designed from the ground up for iPad, Flipboard creates a magazine out of a userʼs social content. Simply launch Flipboard and “flip” open the cover to get started. From the Table of Contents readers can view their sections and personalize the magazine.

The Facebook and Twitter sections let readers quickly flip through the latest stories, photos and updates from friends and trusted sources. Because Flipboard renders links and images right in the magazine, readers no longer have to scan long lists of posts and click on link after link – instead they instantly see all the stories, comments and images, making it faster and more entertaining to discover, view and share social content.

Okimok is a free social network platform that allows users to instantly share their photos with friends by using a superdeluxe slideshow.

A photo says more than a thousand words, but a photo stream tells you a whole story. This is why okimok is a web platform with a photo stream and not a single page view per photo. Okimok claims to be dedicated and simple and that is exactly what we found it to be.
The platform is based on the idea that people would like to see what is going on anywhere, anytime. They want to share these little photo moments with their audience, while being part of another’s audience as well.

Three types of photo streams are available on the platform. First, there is your solo stream displaying the last 15pictures that you made. Next, a combo stream showing the last 30 pictures of the users that you are following. And on the homepage, there is a world stream that shows all pictures made by the entire okimok community.

The app can be found in the Apple App Store and is for free. -download Okimok-

After installing and opening the app, the first thing you do is create a new account. The developers have well thought over the sign up process since you can do everything from the iPhone application itself. After signing up, the main screen appears. The application is nice and simple. Three buttons do the work, “take photo”, “pick photo” and “go okimok.com”.

The first two buttons let you upload a picture, either by taking a new one or picking one from the camera roll. Next, a preview screen is shown with the possibility to add a title that is displayed in the slideshow. The time to

upload a picture is surprisingly short, but that is also due to the fact that the photos are downsized before they get uploaded. The original photos that you upload are stored on your camera roll as well.
The “go okimok.com” button appears to open a safari browser with your combo stream in it. In our opinion it is not very neat to open the safari browser, but the developers of okimok assure that in an upcoming version the iPhone application will be extended to show photo streams inside the app.

The web platform has a lovely design. After signing in, you are brought to your combo stream. In your overview you can see who is following you and who you are following. Like Twitter, only for photos instead of text.It is also possible to change user settings on the web platform. There’s also a Twitter link in the settings menu. When entering your Twitter account details, an update is sent to your Twitter stream everytimeyou upload a new picture. The update consists of a link to your solo stream and not to a specific photo.
