If you have an active social media presence, you’re surely going to love the recently launched iStreamer for iPad application. Developed by AllOfMe, this iPad application displays the activities on your social networks using an appealing timeline-based view. So, if you want to know what all has happened in your social world in the last 30 minutes, iStreamer is the perfect app to do so on your iPad.
IMO, the zoomable continuous 3D Timeline presented by the iStreamer app looks really cool. The app pulls off updates from your Twitter followers as well as Facebook friends and shows them in an intuitive timeline-based interface, something which I’ve never seen before on any social network application. You can pinch to zoom in and out and swipe left and right, it’s all quiet smooth and easy as you like.
Apart from social networks, the iStreamer apps works with RSS feeds as well. So, you can easily see a timeline of new posts on your favorite blogs with the iStreamer app on your iPad. Known as the “iStreamer Social Browser”, the app provides item-by-item details, quick summaries as well as the option to switch to web-view. The UI is pretty neat and self-explanatory. The best part about this app is that it lets you know what all happened in your social circles while you were offline. So, you don’t need to scroll down your Facebook and Twitter profiles to view past tweets, feeds and status updates. You can filter specific updates to discard what all you don’t want to see.
Though the app needs some improvements, it’s a very good first attempt. I believe one of the most-wanted features for this app would be its ability to save a timeline so that it doesn’t start all over again every time you open it. It will also be handy to be able to search items by keywords. AllOfMe says that it’s working on a Lite version which will allow users to open only one feed at a time.
Priced at $4, the app [iTunes link] is good-value for money as it lends a timeline to your social life. Here’s a video of the iStreamer for iPad app from Techcrunch. Enjoy!
