Flipboard, the popular news app for iPad, has announced big changes as part of its Version 1.6 update. The free app now includes Tumblr and 500px integration as well as new syncing tools.
Like the Zite did last month, Flipboard now lets families and friends who share an iPad get their own personalized news information using separate app logins.
To do so, users must signup for a free Flipboard account using a link on the first page of the app. This login will also soon be used with the Flipboard for iPhone app, which is expected in the App Store soon. As such, users will be able to sync their account across both iDevices.
