PostPost, an app from TigerLogic that converts users’ Facebook feeds into newspaper form, is now available for Google Chrome users free-of-charge via the Google Chrome Web Store.

The app uses TigerLogic’s yolink technology to allow users who sign in via Facebook Connect to view shared links, videos, and pictures from their Facebook friends, as well as comment and reshare.

TigerLogic released a solution for newspaper fans who want to catch up with their Facebook friends in tabloid style: PostPost, which allows users who log in via Facebook Connect to see all shared links, pictures, videos, and articles by their friends in newspaper format.

Users can also comment on shared items and reshare them directly via the PostPost platform, which uses David DeSandro‘s jQuery Masonry layout plug-in to build the page and TigerLogic’s yolink search technology.

Mashable pointed out that there is also a social search engine called PostPo.st, which is not related to PostPost at all.
