October 18, 2024

Which social media platform was originally named Picaboo? Was it … A.) Instagram, B.) Snapchat, C.) Twitter or D.) Pinterest?

The answer: B.) Snapchat. It launched in 2011 for iPhone only as Picaboo. It worked about the same — you could send photos that disappeared after being viewed — but they ditched the name for Snapchat in September of that year.
