At some point in my social circle, Twitter transitioned from &quot;a live feed of what your friends are doing&quot;, to a tool people used to read the news and keep tabs on celebrities.<p>In my experience, SnapChat&#x27;s My Story feature has completley supplanted the &quot;live social feed of your friends&quot; aspect.<p>IMO, SnapChat&#x27;s effect on Twitter&#x27;s is comparable to EverQuest&#x27;s effect on text-based MMO&#x27;s. One platform mercilessly dominated the other because of visual stimulation, and all the fun micro-features that go with that.
