"We have long been fans of the free Zite Personalized News on the iPad. The Universal app lets you choose groups of news types, then watches what you tend to read to find more of similar type content.

This week, the Zite developers released a version 2.0 with a new app icon and a new user interface throughout."

The aim of the app is to explain four spatial dimensions to creatures like us who live in a stubbornly three dimensional universe."

The company provides a method to show content of Web site posts on the iPad without all of the extra distractions you have to sort through when viewing via a Web Browser. Now, Readability has released a Universal app for your iPad and iPhone. With the free app on our iPads, we need to examine how our time is best spent."
