Field notes
The landing page describes a topic-first discovery flow: a search such as “abandoned places,” “tarot,” or “ogopogo” becomes a channel, and each result occupies a full screen for swiping. It says the selection can mix contemporary indie blogs with early-web pages recovered through the Wayback Machine; users can save sites and follow blogs. The app is labeled “Coming soon to the App Store,” so these functions are presented as planned rather than demonstrated on the page.
