Snapchat has a certain demo cornered though. Kids aren't using Facebook like their parents are; it's a brand thing more than a feature thing.

- bjshepard 9y agoMost kids worldwide have no idea what Snapchat is. It's a bubble product.
- olivermarks 9y ago...for now there is a small number of of 'kids' using snapchat, but I suspect it will never hit critical mass and will be a fad platform. I know a lot of middle aged marketing types constantly using Snapchat, seeing if it make them money (even if it's just speeches about it to other marketers..)
- accountyaccount 9y agoI wish I were in the position to call 300m+ monthly active users a "small number of kids"
- olivermarks 9y agoI have a hard time believing that number of 300m...
- gpawl 9y agoSnapchat has some useful popular features, but does it have a wide enough functionality it be where anyone "lives" online?
- accountyaccount 9y agoThat's the thing though, the user base is largely a bunch of high school kids that go to the same school - they likely see each other daily. They don't need to "live" anywhere and to the contrary, they don't want to post a bunch of shit their parents are going to see.
- anigbrowl 9y agoI dunno about that, I have a lot of friends who use Snapchat for the filters and low-friction 'waves' at friends but still use FB for more conversational purposes
