Snapchat-A Visual Social Network App Snapchat is a social network geared to teens. It aims to be more visual than its competitors, with more video and photos posted. Snapchat, whose corporate owner is Snap, is the social network of choice for many teens. It has over 300 million subscribers that visit at least once per month. Snapchat was founded in 2011 by former Stanford University students Evan Spiegel, Bobby Murphy, and Reggie Brown. Evan Spiegel is the current CEO. Like Facebook, Snap's revenue is derived from advertising on its site. The brief video ads appear mid-stream in the videos and photos that subscribers view. Many of the long form videos are created by Snapchat staff and partners. Snapchat subscribers post videos and photographs, "snaps," and socialize on Snapchat mainly with students at their school. They post photos of recent get-togethers as well as messages. One feature that appeals to teens is that photos can be posted as soon as they're taken without first saving them to a photo app. Originally, snaps disappeared 10 seconds after they were viewed. Now subscribers are able to designate Snaps that can be saved. Snapchat has filters and lens that subscribers use to add special effects to photos. The filters enable people to modify photos of themselves by adding special effects such as backgrounds and animal ears. Users can also design emojis and communicate feelings using Snapchat's emojis.
