At least with Mission Impossible there was point. What a dumb idea that is. Says volumes about today's disposable culture. If it is such a great idea why don't we keep the theme going and start self-destructing everything. Islamic State are already ahead of us.

No way am I going to join snapchat shit.

And the **** that Miranda Kerr is marrying has made a billion dollars from this "idea?"
The vast majority of content sent to chat is a spur of the moment useless media.
I.e what i'm eating or what i'm doing.
Rarely warrants repeated viewings.

So instead of having videos and images that's only viewed once and hog up valuable disk space on your phone. (which later may require spring cleaning)

snap chat simply lets you view it once. Then discard it.

This function is also useful for Nudes. you send someone nudes. they see it and can't save for a later date and show their mates or use as revenge porn. A for your eyes only kind of things.
