Snapchat is a social media application created by Stanford Univeristy students, Evan Spiegel, Bobby Murphy and Reggie Brown. The photo-based application creates a platform for images and videos to be created and then altered by the addition of filters, text and drawings. These images, which are referred to as “Snaps” can then be distributed to a network of friends for a selected deration of time between 1 and 10 seconds. Recent updates to the application allow for the images to be saved to a timeline called My Story and remain visible to friends for up to 24 hours. Over 400 million “Snaps” are sent and received every day and the applications’ growing user interface is maintaining SnapChat’s personal moto for “building a photo app that doesn’t conform to unrealistic notions of beauty or perfection but rather creates a space to be funny, honest or whatever else you might feel like at the moment you take and share a Snap.”
