This is my Flipboard.

That’s what I’m calling this little video I made to demonstrate the elegance and ingenuity of a new iPad app called Flipboard. I think you’ll agree, it looks nice. I also think you’ll find, once you download the app, that it feels amazing.

Here’s the effect it’s had on me in my couple of months using it in beta: I tend not to follow too many people on Twitter for the content they share, and in a typical Twitter client, I tend to gloss over links and images. Flipboard gives me such a nice way to read this stuff, I use it as an auxiliary client, just for the linked content. Turns out there’s some interesting stuff hidden behind all those ugly short URLs and yfrogs.

Should broadband data hogs pay more? ISP economics say "no"

Good read. (via @frohman)

Never thought about it but people who watch more television don’t pay any more than people who don’t. It has to be delivered just like bandwidth. My television (U-verse) is delivered via the internet.
