‘Report: Facebook Working on Another Snapchat Competitor, Slingshot – ‘Mashable’

Todd Wasserman says, “Just weeks after finally putting its would-be Snapchat killer Poke to rest, Facebook may be looking to test the disappearing-message waters again with a Snapchat rival called Slingshot.

The Financial Times reports that Facebook has been working for several months on an ephemeral messaging app by that name. The app lets users send short video messages by tapping their screen, according to the report, which cautions that the app may never ultimately be released”.
