As the population of planet earth increasingly adopts the Internet and social media as a way of life, so the web attracts a fascinating variety of \"apps\" to facilitate using the technology. Twitter allows users to broadcast their thoughts - in chunks of 140 characters - instantly to millions. Facebook connects people with fans and friends. LinkedIn helps its members to build their professional identities and to find job opportunities, while services like YouTube, Flickr, tumblr, Instagram and Vine enable easy sharing of videos and photographs across continents and time zones. Now, the IAEA is collecting news and information from its Department of Nuclear Energy, and developing it into an easy-to-use app for the iPad, Apple\'s popular tablet device. Named NE News, the app allows users to access all of the Department\'s newsletters, brochures and social media channels through a single portal. This includes the authoritative \"Nuclear Energy Series\" of technical publications, whose guidance covers a wealth of topics ranging from introducing nuclear power to decommissioning. Additionally, NE News provides access to the International Nuclear Information System (INIS), a publicly accessible digital library of over 3.6 million academic and technical publications and documents on peaceful usage of nuclear energy. Using this mobile app, users can search through international agreements and publications, as well as the latest news on nuclear technology. The new, free-to-use iPad app was designed and developed by the Department\'s Nuclear Information Section, with the full support of Alexander Bychkov, the Department of Nuclear Energy\'s Deputy Director-General. \"Our aim is to provide a unique portable access point to the wide range of information available within the IAEA Department of Nuclear Energy,\" explains Nuclear Energy Group Leader, Domenico Pistillo. \"The app will greatly enhance the Department\'s interaction with its stakeholders, researchers and students in the field of Nuclear Energy,\" added Riccardo Rubini, the developer behind the app.
