Feedly
Check out Feedly too.

I would highly recommend pulse. I use that app more than anything else and on the tablet the split screen is really nice.

Try the following:
Feedly
Newsr
News360 (still in Beta but quickly getting better)
Pulse
My favorites are Feedly and Newsr currently. Several more are in beta stages.

thanks for these suggestions. i tried news 360. its user interface is nice .... and reminds me of flipboard somehow. before any updates from above apps mentioned , ifeel news 360 acts more reasonable for 10.1.

I love pulse. A preinstalled app that doesn't suck is great.
Pulse is okay, I hope flipboard comes to android.
It would be nice but I recently took a survey with News360 and they're currently working on Twitter/Facebook integration. It could possibly help me forget about Flipboard.
Man...if only I could code, I would have started working on an app just like Flipboard called Scrapbook. LoL. I wouldn't be surprised to see Flipboard appear on Android sometime after Christmas. I still wonder if Apple doesn't pay some of these developers not to work on both.
It seems silly as anybody who can program, can just take your idea, change it a bit and put in on another marketplace.
with that being said , flipboard to me ,also is far more better in providing iformation than any apps i tried on android os.
just by searching word 'cancer' , in these apps vs flipboard , one can clearly see the difference ....
hope flipboard coming to android soon ...

the same, hope it will be available for android soon.
Another thing is that they need to make the content more customizable and give more consideration to the individual preference.

That is true.
Apart from the tremendous claim for their attractive layout, this is a real problem.
There is not enough personal customization of content, and most often, the status updates chronologically.
Ive never had the chance to play with it but having seen reviews, I would really like to use planetary on android.
I would pay 4.99 on the market for that
What do you mean there is no Flipboard-like app? Theres Google Currents which is superior
I was currently searching for planetary. Only thing i found , was this thread.
Can someone port it for android? Or am i asking something incredible?
I have flipboard installed on my tab. In the play store says isn't compatible but you can instal it if you download the apk from other source. Once installed the app says in the first time open that is not made for this screen size but works perfectly!

I agree, FriendCaster beats the official Facebook app hands down! Especially the pull up 'favourites' tab (similar to the iOS' Favourite profiles, which I miss from my iPod touch days), the ability to tag photos (can't believe it's still not possible in the default one!!) and the popup notifications, especially reminding me of friends' birthdays.
Although it doesn't have chat, Go! Chat is a Facebook chat client (still better than official FB chat) Go on, give it a go
If Friendcaster supports chat function, I will probably use it instead of the Official Facebook app.
can link yahoo messager as fb chat now

I am now using beejive (just facebook chat client), it works really good and against go chat, it shows the messages you got when you were offline. I would like an app that notificates me when i got a notification on facebook
sorry for my english
Friend caster now has a chat that can be downloaded from market.

Hey guys,
Living in China here and facebook is blocked, when I first had blur facebook use to work through Moto's blur service.
Now that I have CM, there is no more blur and no more facebook...
Besides getting a VPN to bypasss China's firewall, is there any facebook app available now that works through their own server?

If you want more functionality there is always the possibility to just visit the mobile/regular website via your browser. It only takes 1 tap more if you have facebook listed in your favourites.

I don't understand how would it be exclusive to defy, am I missing something?
I have been trying out the AOSP roms and really liking them, but the one thing I really miss from Sense is the Friend Stream widget. I liked having my twitter and Facebook feeds all in one place. Is there any other app or widget that can do the same thing? I have searched in the market and tried a few, but none of them that I've found can show both together.
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using XDA Premium App
tweetdeck does both.
Thanks! I'll give it a try - does it have a widget too?
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using XDA Premium App
if you don't mind replacing your launcher, try LauncherProPlus. It has a friends widget which can show Facebook, Twitter, or both. There is even a skin in the market that will emulate the look of the Sense widget.
Anyone know of a widget or app the combines feeds from Facebook and twitter?

Android Pro widgets works great for me and has tons of themes available.

+1 for wizz, just installed it and the widgets are pretty nice!
Another vote for Android Pro Widgets. Works as well as FriendStream.
Anyone a meteorologist or an aspiring one? Or anyone that just is fascinated by weather? I'm a undergrad meteorologist looking for the best known/unknown weather apps for android, either on or off of the google play store. Let me know what you guys got. Thanks :good:

I'm using Android Weather. I think it's the best of weather apps. Fast, light and exactly.
Weather tap has great radar. But I still use weatherbug as my everyday app.
:highfive:Bump on E-weather HD!! For the wealth of data it provides, $3.99 seems cheap!! Radar is the best I've seen on a device!! :good:
1Weather
Which weather app is the best... it depends what you expect from such app.
I like apps to be well designed and its very important for me... 1Weather was one of the best apps which I tried. Its very accurate, and it has additional functions, which I didnt use offten. But feel free to try it, maybe you will like it too
I agree with E-Weather HD. Great and informative weather app. Thanks for suggesting it
