King of App

In the midst of the effervescence of the Messaging apps, there is one that stands out above all the others. And it does so not because it is more useful than any of its rivals, nor because it is more attractive in its design, nor much less because it allows better communication between its users. If there is one thing that stands out, it is precisely the opposite, but it has managed to attract thousands of people.

The application in question is called Ethan, like its creator: Ethan Gliechtenstein and it is only used to get in touch with him. Users of this App can ask him his opinion on any topic they think of and he will kindly respond to them when he has a moment to do so. He can be asked about anything, whether it be choosing a restaurant, what dress to wear or even what to do in certain situations.

There are only three things you can't ask or contact Ethan about (actually two): in case of emergency or to ask him to do your job. The third requirement that can't be broken is that it is forbidden to fall in love with him.

Ethan is not a philosopher, nor a thought leader, nor someone with a criterion infallible. Ethan is a programmer, an external agent to be called upon in case of doubt and whose consideration of his answers is solely and exclusively responsibility of the user who writes to him. That is why the real usefulness of this App is called into question, but not if what is sought is pure and simple. entertainment.

After getting a not inconsiderable collection of downloads, Ethan is already preparing a new evolution of his idea: that anyone can be Ethan. In other words, he has opened up the possibility for anyone who wants to have an App so that people can contact him and ask his opinion. Who's up for it?
