Snapchat and Twitter on the social media front.
Google on the ads front.
Telegram and Apple (iMessage) on the IM front. (Not sure this one really counts, though. Is IM a "front"?)
- tabeth 9y agoI agree that Google is competitor, but I'm not talking in terms of monetization spaces, I'm referring more to the core solution. In fact I'd amend my statement and say Snapchat isn't really a competitor, either. Facebook is basically a rolodex with messaging and storage built in. I don't see anything like it.
- crowbahr 9y agoInasmuch as IM is monetized I think it's a front. It's another aspect or facet of social media and we're already making the distinction between microblogging (Twitter Vs Facebook) and photo sharing (snapchat Vs Insta) so I don't see why not?
