Storify Launches iPad App

Storify promised a "big announcement" at midnight PST Wednesday and it delivered -- its first mobile app and a free one at that: Storify for iPad. It's using the hashtag #feb22 if you want to be part of the conversation to discuss this milestone for Storify.

  1. In the app, you can drag-and-drop with your fingers to create stories based on social media, pulling in from Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and the Web. While tablets are seen by many as devices for content consumption, it allows the user to create content on the iPad and publish to the Web. It's in the app store now.

  14. With 25 minutes to go until the announcement, it's now clear why Storify co-founder Burt Herman has been silent the past 24 hours. He just issued his first tweet in that span. Storify co-founder Xavier Damman tweeted throughout today (scroll down for those tweets).

  20. Woof, the #Storify announcement won't be until 2 a.m. central time. Who am I kidding, I'll probably still be awake for it.
