New app Fling is like a virtual message in a bottle service, allowing users to randomly send photos, videos, and texts to up to 50 people around the world. Senders can then access a map to see where their missives have landed. If they feel inclined to further the conversation, recipients can send a response. The exchange remains completely anonymous, unless both parties decide to exchange info. The lack of personally identifying information means that some communications may cross the line of propriety—but because the messages are not ephemeral and don’t disappear after viewing, users should exercise caution in choosing what they share.
