(Founder Stories) How Mike McCue Came Up With Flipboard: “What If We Accidentally Deleted The Web”

How did Mike McCue come up with the idea for Flipboard , the iPad reader that's seeing more than 10 million flips a day ? In these final two video clips from his Founder Stories interview with Chris Dixon , McCue says that he had no intention of starting another company after selling TellMe to Microsoft (which he talks about in Part I and Part II of this interview). He was tired after ten years at TellMe. He just wanted to take some time off. But that was easier said than done. "The way I relax, if I am on a beach, the first thing I do is get a notebook and start sketching out ideas," he tells Dixon. "I am kind of addicted to it."
