Flipboard Adds New Social Components With Contributors and Engagements for Magazines

Source: Flipboard

Flipboard, the social magazine, has recently introduced two new features that enhance the app's social and collaborative aspects.

The first feature is called Contributors, which allows creators and publishers to invite others to contribute to their magazines. A new invite button is available under the magazine cover for this purpose. Contributors will be able to add articles, photos, videos, podcasts, and notes to the magazine.

The second feature brings interactive elements such as comments, likes, and shares to Magazines. Previously, these interactive features were only available for individual stories.

These social components complement previously introduced features like Pinned Flips and Notes, significantly augmenting Flipboard's value as a platform for creators and publishers. Now, they not only have the means to share their original stories and curate content around specific topics but also have the opportunity to receive feedback from their audience, both new and existing. This feedback loop fosters a more engaging and collaborative community within the platform, reminiscent of traditional social media platforms.
