Get this App: Flipboard!
I adore Flipboard.
(Have no idea what I’m talking about? Watch the video above, head over to their website, read about, then download it, ASAP!)
I’ve used it for over a year now and here is a quick list as to WHY I like it.
1. I can access it on my ipad, iphone, and computer.
2. Similar to Pinterest, I can have “boards”, or in this case, “magazines” that I can explore, save, and share.
3. It’s like having a magazine full of your favorite blog posts and topics – complete with the flipping of pages and visuals/photos that you might otherwise miss on Facebook or Twitter. (you can access all forms of social media via this app).
4. You can create your own magazine! In this case, I started a magazine about, you guessed it, MUSIC THERAPY. If I find an article, post, twitter comment, or news item that I find applicable to the field, I can FLIP it onto this magazine and share it with others.
5. I’m all about aesthetics (I like makin’ things purdy, y’all), AND, I’m a very visual learner; therefore, Flipboard is right up my alley.
6. It is yet another way to spread the word and ADVOCATE about Music Therapy!!
7. It’s FREE!
