Snapchat-Spotlight, a TikTok-like short video function. Image: Snapchat Snapchat used to be the favorite of young social media users, but under the dual competitive pressure of Instagram and TikTok, it has lost its momentum. After a quiet year of lacking innovation, Snapchat finally began to fight back. On the morning of Nov. 23, Snapchat officially announced the launch of a dedicated place within its App, where users can watch short videos on a vertical scrollable screen similar to TikTok feed. This new feature, called Spotlight, will showcase the most watched short videos created by the user community. Last month, Snapchat launched another TikTok-like music-backed short video function. In a brief news release, Snapchat says to encourage the creation of short videos it would distribute more than $1 million a day among the best Spotlight short video creators. At this moment, Spotlight is available in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Britain, Ireland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Germany and France. Snapchat says it’s still working on its new short video function. Spotlight short videos still need to be reviewed and there is no comment function for them so far.

November 27, 2020 | 5:35pm A model from California is helping women catch cheating cads on Instagram. Paige Woolen, 28, who has over 200,000 followers on her main account, has a side account, @dudesinthedm, from which she slides into the DMs of men who are suspected of cheating to see if she can catch them in the act. “I had been noticing a lot of guys that DM me on my personal account had profile photos with their girlfriends,” Woolen told the Star. “It got me wondering if their girlfriends know or care that they DM random girls with photos in their bikinis.” She posts images of the direct message exchanges she has with the men on Instagram, thus exposing the would-be cheaters. She wrote to one partnered man recently saying: “Just thought you were so so cute. Was hoping to meet up if you’re single of course.” The man replied instantly: “I’m single enough, do you have Snapchat?” Another man flirted, claiming he was single, despite his Instagram account being full of pictures of his girlfriend. Woolen — whose main Instagram account is filled with bikini pics of herself — said she was surprised at her exchanges with the…

A TEENAGER who pressured a 13-year-old girl into sending sexually suggestive pictures pointed the finger of blame at a friend when caught by police. Jarryd Alexander, 19, left his victim suffering severe anxiety and on the verge of suicide. Chelmsford Crown Court heard how he struck up a conversation with the girl via Snapchat, initially engaging in “friendly conversation” and feeding her compliments. But Alexander gradually steered the exchange towards sexual questions. When he first asked for a “nude picture”, the girl said no. The pair eventually exchanged pictures with the defendant sending his victim a picture of himself wearing no underwear.
