This is a great. I find that half my snapchats are boring photos of my face, lunch, or coffee mug, just so I can put a caption over them. No more! It also seems like a full on attack against Facebook messenger.

Totally agree about Facebook messenger. This is a game changer. FB messenger is going to be the I'm-on-the-subway-and-don't-know-anyone-so-I-better-not-look-silly kinda app, and that's boring.

  I'm-on-the-subway-and-don't-know-anyone-so-I-better-not-look-silly kinda app Hmm, what does this mean? I really don't understand, sorry! Sounds interesting though.

    It means people will user Facebook messenger when they are not comfortable with the place they are in. If I'm at home, at my university or my cousins' I will chose Snapchat over Facebook messenger, because I'll feel free enough that I can talk and goof around with that app, in a way that is not possible with Facebook... yet! Also, I think there are people less boring than me who will not give a damn and will use Snapchat's Chat everyday, everywhere, and that's going to be awesome. As clichéd as it might sound, they really are changing the way we communicate.

      If the newest update is anything to go by (auto sending image as soon as it is taken) FB messenger is trying to get away from that

    I think he's referring to lot of people that spend their time mindlessly sifting through their smartphone in order to avoid eye contact with a stranger.

      And also that if someone sees you "selfie"-ing you will likely feel silly, whereas Messenger isn't as publicly silly.

I think the fact that it's in Snapchat combined with the disappearing messages will yield different use than FB messages. I think it'll be used for when I'm bored and feel like sending silly messages, rather than serious conversations.

It also destroys Mark Cuban's CyberDust. He wasn't too happy when I pointed that out: https://twitter.com/patel0phone/status/461872015599996929 https://twitter.com/patel0phone/status/461872015599996929
