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.
