IT’S MOTHER’S DAY today.
It’s a day designed to celebrate the mother figures in our lives, whether that’s your mother, grandmother, the mother of your children, or someone who best matches the description for you.
Many will spend some quality time with the people that mean a lot to them, while for those who have lost their mothers, it is often a day of remembrance.
Of course, individual families are often complicated, and some people may not have had a mother in their lives or had a relationship with their mother that is not one to celebrate.
So today, we’re asking you: Will you be marking Mother’s Day?

$10bn for something that generates no revenue? The world has gone mad.
Snapchat , The new ‘try before you buy’
The world has gone mad !
There was a program on channel4 awhile ago, the lad that created bebo sold it for something like $800million and bought it back 3 years later for $1million!
I’d sell it now before something else comes along and snapchat will be long forgotten about!
When ppl send you goatses, who’s taking the picture?
Who uses Snapchat and what do you use it for?
Mostly kids and seriously vain and self-obsessed adults.
I just don’t see the attraction. You can send pics with WhatsApp and Viber, how has this become so successful? I get that the pic deletes itself on Snapchat but is there much of a need for that? The dick pic market can’t be that big? I used to be with it. Note I don’t even know what IT is anymore.
Usually used to display their genitals and selfies while sitting on the jax to their friends.
First off it saves on space because images or videos aren’t saved locally to your device. Second it uses less data than other apps such as Whatsapp and Viber which both fully download their media – Snapchat compresses its media reducing data requirements. You have to look at Snapchat as a much more casual form of communication – nothing is stored.
Also you’d be surprised at the lack of penis selfies on it. It isn’t Chatroulette – you know who is sending you snaps at all times unless you have your settings set otherwise.
Thank you Vox Pop for your explanation.
ha all those stupid women sending naked pics don’t realise that this stays on a server forever eh lol.
People need to to educate themselves a bit better when it comes to technology :-)
Didn’t bebo have a crazy evaluation at one stage……….
Omegle must be worth $1000billion
have your say
