#33I know I have a fancy red phone nobody uses (I think it's called NEXUS 5 from a company named Goodle or Google, I can't remember).
So, before putting new stuff in the app, please fix it!

#34It's not a coincidence that they are coming out with new features right before CyberDust is about to become big(they are coming to Android this month).

I know a lot of people that don't have snapchat specifically for this reason.

Can Facebook afford a much bigger offer?
They could drop $20 billion on Snapchat tomorrow morning and there's nobody that can stop Zuckerberg from doing it if he thinks it makes sense.

What would that update be? Or is "user-to-user messaging" explicitly text messaging?
The original quote is about mail: "Every program attempts to expand until it can read mail. Those programs which cannot so expand are replaced by ones which can." Which itself may have been derived from an earlier Usenet quote about MIT [1] "Every program in development at MIT expands until it can read mail."
