TT is a different beast. I don't fully understand it yet, but it has serious momentum.
Basically, during the course of the past 20 years, we went from actually calling each other to SMS, msn, and finally wx. Tik tok is the new frontier.
Hard to say if Tiktok is a fad or not. It might not have staying power and fade over time. Lots of apps and games had such fate.
