This will involve expanding the number of media companies that share content and promoting Flipboard as an advertising medium.

Flipboard is a free app, available on the iPad, iPhone and Android platforms, that aggregates content from social media, news websites and blogs and presents it in a magazine layout. In Japan, Flipboard features content from publications such as GQ, Wired, TechCrunch, Asahi Shimbun and National Geographic.
