A snippet

I was wandering around Second Life on Thursday, when I came across a really nice guy from Peru (well he said he was from Peru).  There was music playing in the background, and it was his friend on the guitar - nice.  I asked him if he played and he admitted he only played bits of songs,  "Oh snippets" I replied.  "What?"  So, I had to explain what the word snippet can describe, and the more I said the word, the more I realised - I really like it.  It has a great sound, almost like its meaning, which is a small and often interesting piece of news, information, conversation, or of course - music.  So, you've just read a snippet of our conversation about snippet.
