News.me, a social news iPad app from the New York Times, is on the way and has been revealed to Techcrunch in a series of screen shots. It looks like it’ll be a direct rival for The Daily iPad newspaper coming from News Corp and pretty ace in its own right. It also reminds us of Flipboard.

News.me links your Twitter account to the app and gives you the ability to view your friends’ individual news streams or combine them into a custom newspaper. You can share articles from the app via Facebook, Twitter or email and save stories to Instapaper. The app probably won’t be free but it will access the premium content from the New York Times. No news yet on when the News.me will break cover but we’ll grab it when it does.

The Flipboard iPad app caused quite a storm when it was released earlier this year and has even nabbed Apple’s approval as App of the Year for 2010. Now the Flipboard iPad app has had a serious upgrade too with the addition of Google Reader support, Flickr integration and the ability to fling status updates, photos and Flipboard pages straight from the app to Twitter and Facebook. Flipboard says: “Google Reader was by far our most requested feature.” Google Reader entries are shown in Flipboard the same way as links shared via Twitter and Facebook with a headline and a brief summary plus a relevant photo. You can download the latest version of the Flipboard iPad app from the iTunes App Store now.
