"Snapchat Murders Facebook"

I recently came across a video on YouTube titled "Snapchat Murders Facebook." It was quite difficult to keep scrolling after reading that title. It was so good that after I watched the video, I clicked the subscribe button. The guy behind this channel is Casey Neistat. His videos are posted monthly, indicating that a lot of time and effort is put into his videos.

"Snapchat Murders Facebook" currently has 656,249 views, but I think it deserves more.
I love how social media can change so dramatically when something new comes along. In this case it's snapchat! In the video Casey asks people on the street "How often do you use Snapchat", they reply with "Everyday" and "The question is when do I NOT use snapachat?". They also go onto say that no-one really uses facebook any more.

Casey also explores how previous social media platform have risen to fame and then disappeared again. From friendster, myspace, facebook, instagram (bought by facebook for 1 billion) and Snapchat (declined facebooks offer of 3 billion).

"The reason why this [snapchat] is a 10 billion dollar big deal, is that no ones is yet to figure out video on mobile... Because the stories dissapear, there's a sense of urgency."

A company who refuses to sell for 3 billion dollars, deserves the title of "The future of social media."
Watch out facebook, you may be becoming the new myspace.
