SOME friends were gushing recently about a new mobile application called
Pair, intended for people in a relationship.

Initially, I didn't see the appeal of the app, which lets the two
partners send messages and photos back and forth. The idea of adding
another service to the daily routine of Twitter, Facebook and their ilk
seemed exhausting. And wouldn't it be just as easy to exchange e-mails,
text messages or, better yet, just flirt face to face?

She never really answered her own question: How is this better than using
those traditional means of private communication?

Probably because you may no longer "accidentally" be able to send
extremely private messages to the wrong destinations, I assume that this
"app" locks you into the fixed destination to avoid those oh-so
embarrassing on-line mistakes that are regularly revealed.
