I was trying out Google Tasks, a to-do list app, and it just asked me to download an app of it on my phone, and on the bottom it says "add to task". I clicked it and it added "download the tasks mobile app" to the to-do list.
I found this amazingly life-like in its self-serving purpose. It's self-referential and trying to survive. It's asking me to keep its existence using its own to-do list powers.
