iTunes iPad Update With Ping

by Kristen Hawley 0

Last week's iTunes 10.1 update brought increased functionality (including Airplay), but Apple has also updated its iTunes app for the iPad to include Ping, the new social networking function attached to iTunes.

Ping on the iPad works similarly to Ping on your computer or the iPhone; the app will be updated automatically with no need to download an update. While initial adoption of Ping has been slow, now that the social networking service is both on the iPad and linked with users' Twitter accounts, Apple is likely hoping that even more iTunes users will take advantage of the service.
