Flipboard, the social networking iPad app that crashed from overuse when it launched in July, is getting a much needed update, to version 1.0.2. The new Flipboard has been given a revamp, making it faster and more flexible.

Flipboard version 1.0.2 gets extra customisation tools for the front page – you can now add 21 sections to the front page, and Twitter and Facebook accounts can be removed completely. It will also display a web page snapshot if a text preview isn’t available. Flipboard 1.0.2 also updates new content when it appears, and loads more content automatically when you get near the end of a page.
