Heck, I'm 24 and have a lot of trouble understanding the appeal of Snapchat. Despite lots of friends trying to get me to use it I've never figured out how to get value from it.

Like most social networks, getting value from it depends on following high-quality content creators. Mark Suster is a good one on Snapchat.

I thought the value of social networks was mostly in following your friends?

Most of the value I get from Twitter, Instagram, and Whale is from people I don't know in real life. Facebook is the only social network for me that's mostly real life friends.
