Daps'em Is The Like You Never Had
Tweet
Let me first explain the title of this post - what does it mean the LIKE you never had? Well, in Facebook you can like just about anything, but can you really like people, or show them your appreciation in a unique way other than just hmm.. telling them? Why not Dap them instead?
What I really like about this app is that though you can dap a variety of things (not just people), you can stop for a second to think about what is actually worth your dap, it's not that you do it repetitively every sec, but when you truly appreciate something. On the other hand, if you appreciate things daily but never get the chance to say it out loud, this application can come in handy, especially for people who find it hard to express feelings of appreciation.
Daps'em gives the ability to send a dap with a personal note of appreciation. It can be a person, book, or event, etc. (you can also attach a photo to your dap). Then you can share it within the Daps'em community, and they can 'Yay' your Daps if they wish, or simply comment on it. You can of course connect to Twitter and/or Facebook and as well as Foursquare in order to share it with friends wherever they are.
But there is still work to be done/missing features to add:
It's those little gestures in life that count so much and we often seal it with a simple 'thank you' note. Daps'em aiming to make the world quite a better place, bold statement it is, but how can we not relate to that?

But there is still work to be done/missing features to add:
- Tagnames in Facebook - because if you dap friends you also want them to know about it even if they are not connected to Daps'em.
- A short URL that can be grabbed from the app to share it manually, or by email.
- It would be useful to see each conversation under a separate link.
- In the profile section, Got and Gave daps should be separated by tabs, and clickable.

Thanks for the great post Orli!
The features you suggested are great!
We've actually already made a few improvements, one of which is when you dap your friends and share it on facebook, it shows up on their wall. That way, not only they know about it - but their friends too!
Totally agree with you re the rest - they're all in the works. Stay tuned for the next version!
