Create content for iPad

SO... WHAT IS PADILICIOUS? PADILICIOUS.COM, when viewed on your Mac, is an entirely different site than what you're seeing here. The other site (to view, tap here) contains free Mac OS X tools for automatically generating interactive web-apps for the iPad. And these web-apps can be easily shared with others, by using the free tools to automatically upload them to your MobileMe sites folder. For example, tap one of the images below, and rotate your iPad horizontally, to view an interactive photo carousel/slideshow web-app that was automatically created by simply selecting images on the Mac and applying a Mac OS X service to them! By the way, these example web-apps are meant to viewed fullscreen on the iPad, so after tapping their thumbnail images, tap the plus sign (+) in the Safari toolbar to add them to your homescreen as links. Then tap one of the created bookmark links on your homescreen, and the apps will open in fullscreen mode! Photo Carousel and Slideshow Captioned Carousel and Slideshow Essay with Carousel and Slideshow Or maybe you just want to create a simple scrolling text page, that may contain an image, or an audio clip, or a video clip: So... if you're looking for a free and easy way to create and share content for the iPad, use your Mac to visit PADILICIOUS.COM. P-A * D-I * L-I * C-I * O-U-S * DOT-COM - PADILICIOUS!
