About this app

It's also an experiment in a new format: a "tap essay," presenting its argument tap by tap, using typography, color, and a few surprises to make its case. This is a short but heartfelt manifesto about the difference between liking something on the internet and loving something on the internet. The essay takes about ten minutes to read, maybe less if you're fast. It's perfect for a coffee break or a train ride.
