Google Propellor: Social and News Reader

Now that Google+ has more or less stabilized, Google seems to moving forward in its "social" onslaught.

According to AllThingsD, Google tried to buy Flipboard -- a reader app that arranges your content to resemble a magazine --  but was turned down by the well-funded start-up.
