Bored with your current social media and photosharing options? Then the new Tapestry storytelling app might become your go-to social network. The idea is to assemble short, illustrated, and clickable stories using the stockpiled photos on your cell phone's camera and animated text, then share them with whomever has a few seconds to tap through your work. The interface is surprisingly organic: tap to advance the story. That's it. There's no rewind, fast forward, or zoom, but the comedic timing of a well placed text animation might surprise you. See what Tapestry can do with this story about the anguish of being a two-year-old, for example.
