In my memory it originates with Apple ads: "There's an app for that." Like all things Apple, it's a bit too cute, like talking to a 12 year old girl. But now that the term is established, at least it's a way to distinguish compiled Win32 software executables from Metro/WinRT/UWP applets. Microsoft have a long history of butchering the English language with tasteless marketing. WinME was supposed to be pronounced, and written, "Windows Me". But they couldn't quite swallow their own sleaze, so the logo was a lowercase e, but as high as the M. Then there was "solutions" as a substitute for "projects" -- marketing the software before it's even written. My favorite all-time gibberish: "Leveraging solutions across the enterprise". (Translation: Using software at work.) My favorite example of shooting themselves in the foot: "Hailstorm" as a name for a set of online services. Their latest obnoxious gimmick is "experiences": "Windows also provides experiences that connect to the internet to provide additional capabilities. These connected experiences can help you in various ways." It's an interesting choice. The term seems to assume that Windows customers tend to feel that they're "missing the boat" in their life. Numb. So all Microsoft products are called "experiences". Not only can you write a letter with Office365. It will enrich your life so that you don't feel like such a loser. Always dreamed of climbing Everest or touring the national parks, but you never got around to it? Not to worry. You can use Outlook, which is just as good. "You can have a rich, fulfilling life, for only 15 bucks a month."
