The team had been working long and hard on the second generation of our product, so you can imagine the excitement when at last we were ready to raise the red curtain.

As you probably know by now, 2.0 makes it easy for anyone to create a magazine filled with the things they find in Flipboard—and now, on the Web at large, via the new bookmarklet.
