The Subtle Genius Of Google+ For iPad: Popular Posts Appear Bigger
You shouldn't have to squint at Like and retweet counts to discover the best content your social network has to offer. So with one simple design choice, Google+ for iPad (and Nexus 7 ) has created a better tablet feed reading experience than Facebook or Twitter. As Google announced at I/O, on tablet, Google+ posts with more engagement are shown larger.
The Google+ iPad app launched today feel more like Flipboard, where surging seas of information turn into smooth sailing thanks to visual cues to what's crucial. Browsing update after update doesn't feel monotonous. In fact, it's quite refreshing and addictive, enough so it might help Google+ finally shake that ghost town label.
