Book excerpt: What if an app gave X-ray vision to see the people around you, through the steel and brick and sometimes their clothes? What if you could communicate with them as if through telepathy so that no one else knew? Welcome to Grindr, which uses the Gps capabilities on smartphones to help its five million users discover users nearby to meet. Meet Grindr illuminates the new world of meeting online, exploring its ups and downs. How is Grindr more addictive than slot machines? Why are users like jars of jam? What if Grindr is actually a game, and should it be more of a team sport? Meet Grindr uncovers surprising answers and explores where design subtly influences users, how users could make better connections, and why Grindr has changed the way people connect.
