Twitter, and see them transformed into gorgeous visual streams.

that stream. Turn on Taptu Magic to let Taptu learn what you like and tailor your
streams to your interests. Create customized keyword searches to keep you up to date on a
specific topic.

Read and reply to what your friends write on Facebook and Twitter.

Save articles to read them later using Instapaper, Pocket or Taptu’s bookmarks.

Sync your streams across devices, platforms, and your browser at taptu.com.

Reviews

TechCrunch: “The design itself is sleek and clean, allowing you to separate each stream…If you are a power reader or a news junkie, Taptu’s app is the way to go. Not only does it allow you to access a large number of news sources (thousands), in an easy to read interface, but it allows you to personalize and customize your feeds”

Wired.com: “Taptu’s secret sauce lets you mash up mixed streams…I didn’t give up on it after some initial enthusiasm. I kept going back not only to read up on things but also to try things out that occurred to me randomly and to tinker with feeds”

Widgets
