"kaisha thompson recently sent me this invitation to microact[…]"
"Microact"?
I like how the author pulls out the word "microact" as if it were the most normal thing in the world and later derides poking as created by "nerds" a few paragraphs later.
To be fair, the "about" section contains this gem: "We need adventurers like you to generate actionplatforms and microactions, and then invite people to microact."
Which explains it all.
What if we just want to be ActionListeners? I know about that.
