If you want a GetGlue app for webOS, send a tweet to @GetGlue with the hashtag #webOS. For all the news you can want about the platform, all the patches and homebrew apps and themes, app reviews and download links, forums and a great Podcast, plus all the accessories you'll ever need, check out www.Precentral.net. It's the premiere webOS site on the net. Palm webOS is an open source operating system for smartphones with a beautiful interface and an ingenious system of multi-tasking using 'cards.' Each open app is a card on your screen and you can switch between them with a flick of your finger.

You can also search your contacts, search the internet, or launch an app just by typing from the home screen; no need to launch any other app, just start typing. Your contacts, calendar and email can all be synced in real time with Google and Gmail, like an Exchange server. You can sync your contacts with Facebook as well.

WebOS also has some of the best 3D games on any mobile platform. One of the greatest aspects of webOS is its openness. Anyone can write an app for the platform and list it the official App Catalog for free, without any of the Orwellian style restrictions and rules like in Apple's iTunes store.

You can also list them for free in web feeds, beta feeds and homebrew apps, without any approval from Palm. This means there is no limit on the type of apps you can put on your webOS phone. There are also patches and themes you can install for free that can change every aspect of how your interface looks and behaves, and add all sorts of additional features and options.

You have a level of freedom that iPhone snobs can only dream of. Once you use a webOS phone for the first time, you'll be hooked. With the upcoming release of webOS 2.0, Flash web browsing will also be possible.

This means you can enjoy the full web on your phone including videos and games. That's something iPhone snobs can NOT even dream of. WebOS 2.0 will also add some new features and improve on some existing ones.
