Everyone wants Snapchat

Snapchat is a social media app popular with the young ground these days. It’s an app where you send pictures or videos to anyone of your contact list. They can usually last up to 10 seconds depends on the time limit put on it. After it’s open and viewed. Snapchat claims that the picture or video is gone forever. It’s a very fun app to use for people who are obsessed with taking selfies. Also it’s 10 times after then sending a picture through a text message.

  Snapchat is growing fast and a lot of companies are trying to come after it and buy it. Snapchat was created by a 23 year old that kept hearing about his friend that wanted a faster way to send out pictures. The 23 year old name is Evan Spieleg is a college dropout that currently lives at his dads. He claims snapchat is still young and hasn't reach the potential it can yet. It’s still growing like crazy. Even I’m a fan of snapchat and so are many of friends.

CEO of Snapchat Evan Spieleg

A couple weeks ago Facebook offered snapchat 1 Billion dollars but Evan turned it down. A couple of weeks after Fb offered snapchat 3 Billion dollars yet Evan still turned down the offer. It seems like FB really wants to own snapchat so it can control more things and be involve in the lives of more teenagers. Later on in the week that Fb offered 3 Billion dollars. Google got in on the action to offer up 4 Billion dollars. Yet Evan still won’t bit and give up the company. I guess Evan sees some potential no one else sees at the moment. When I heard this news I was shocked that company are offering that much money because I don’t think any snapchat users will think it was worth that much. Maybe one day he might sell the company but right now it doesn’t seem like he’s giving it up for any amount of money.
