Forbes Lists app for iPhone and iPad

Who cares how much somebody is worth? How much influence they have? How much power they wield? We all do.


These are the people that offer a critical barometer of how well the nation – and, to a degree, the world – is doing. They help shape financial trends as well as shifts in leadership and policy. They provide the spark for innovation, creativity, and entrepreneurship, for philanthropic giving and more. And their stories may serve as powerful examples offering lessons and inspiration to others to achieve success themselves. That’s why Forbes has been tracking the wealthy, the powerful, the influential chronicling their ups and downs as a central part of our mission all these years.


Now, you can get all the Forbes lists and keep up with those who appear on them, right on your iPad. The Forbes Lists app – launching with the 29th Annual Forbes 400 list of the richest Americans – optimizes presentation of the list for the iPad and features:


• sorting of the list by name, age, residence, and source of wealth in addition to rank/net worth
• a search screen so you can find specific individuals easily
• the ability to create your own list of the people you want to keep track of on a regular basis
• a photo gallery of images for most listees
• the chance to share information via Facebook, Twitter, and email
• an up-to-date feed of the latest news on the listees.
