New York Times iPad app updated with more sections, free until early 2011

Filed under: News

The New York Times iPad app hasn't exactly been selling anyone on the future of newspapers with its extremely selection of content. Well, that's starting to change with the latest edition, which includes more sections of the paper, and even some of the Times blogs. On top of the larger number of stories, the app also includes more videos and photo slideshows. The design has also improved a bit, and the app delivers breaking news alerts when it's running in the background.

The new app description in the App Store also includes this little tidbit: New York Times for the iPad is free until early 2011. That means a few more ads, but it's fair trade for a free app with more content. If you're going to give the Times a chance as your tablet newspaper of choice, it looks like now is the time to do it. I'm still holding out hope that they'll eventually throw in every section and all the blogs, but this is a step in the right direction.
