It’s Social Week On Pulse!

Two years ago, when Pulse launched, we saw a lot of people painfully switching between different websites or apps to read their news. They would open up a lot of tabs in their browser or create a folder with a lot of publisher apps on their phone. Pulse set out to make lives easy by getting the best news content in one place.

Fast-forward to today, we now see a lot of people painfully switching between social networks to get their favorite content. But hopping across social networks is so 2012, and who wants to live in the past? With the latest Pulse update (on iOS and Android) you can browse your favorite social feeds—Youtube, Tumblr, Instagram, Flickr, and Facebook—in one place, with one clean interface. Welcome to the new age.

We’ve also given photo and video viewing a facelift! The reading view has been completely redesigned so that you can enjoy your Instagram and Flickr photos or Youtube videos without any clutter, and let those gorgeous snaps speak for themselves.

To add your social feeds, tap the blue Add Content button at the bottom of the left navigation bar, swipe to Social or What’s New, then tap the + to add your feed to a page. When you go back to that page, log in and start browsing!

We’ll be highlighting some of our own favorites all week, scouring the ‘net for the best Tumblr blogs, Youtube channels, Flickr photos, and more. We’re celebrating Social Week on Pulse!
