Staying up-to-date on news and current events has always been incredibly important to me. As soon as I hit my pre-teen years, I began developing my world view and soaking up as much information as I possibly could about anything and everything I was interested in. I have always had the very strong-held belief that knowledge and information about the way in which the world around us works is power; this is especially true when you notice something within society that you want to help change. This belief in itself is what initially led me to start blogging. Over a decade later, this hunger for knowledge and news has only gotten more intense.

Technology has become such an integral part of how we receive and share information from all over the world. As technology continues to progress, more people are utilizing other gadgets and options in order to share information. The iPad has quickly became one of the greatest resources for new and exciting information and story-based apps being created specifically for the iPad.

A brand new app dedicated to exploring globally relevant topics just launched on April 12th. “the collection” is a media-rich “appazine”, a zine in iPad app form, that uses ground-breaking innovation that is highly interactive in its design and ensures a compelling and entertaining experience for everyone who downloads and utilizes the app.

“the collection” contains first-class articles that you won’t find anywhere else on topics that span a myriad of different topics from several points of view with a whole lot of crisp, clean photos, auto, videos and interactive elements like panoramic photography, 3D digital animation, creative morphing, rubbing and X-Ray lens, among other things. They are really rolling out all the stops to bring users a fantastic experience while staying up-to-date on the world around us all.
