The main gripe I have with Snapchat is as a content creator, which I understand is not the normal perspective... How is anyone ever going to find my Snapchat Story if they don't have my username or my number?

Every camera shoots horizontal, right? So we're all super used to framing things with lots of horizontal room. We've seen this new wave of Snapchat stories and Instagram stories where people are actually framing for and recording in vertical. Whether it's better or not is debatable.

A lot of journalists don't want to conflate their own opinions with those of their employers... With a YouTube video, you can be as personal or as journalistic as you want.

Creators are what bring the eyeballs to platforms, and vice versa. Sort of a chicken-and-egg thing, because you can't have creators and no platform.

I had an Ultimate jersey on in my first video. I get a lot of comments about it, because a lot of tech people don't know anything about Ultimate.

If I'm going to give someone advice on what to buy, you want a personality to back it up rather than some robot telling you X is better than Y.
