CNBC.com has a [video segment][6] with [Snap.com CEO Tom McGovern][5] talking about Snap.com and MSM's favorite new topic -- who's going to be the next Google.
We've been [following Snap][1] [for][4] [some][2] [time][3] and the site continues to grow at an astonishing rate, but nothing pulls in users like good old-fashioned TV exposure. Snap.com's Jason Fields tells us search traffic at Snap has tripled since the CNBC broadcast this morning.
I do enjoy Snap, especially the image search, but I don't know if it's a Google killer. It's not hard to imagine Google buying Snap though. Let us know what you think.
