Popular social
network Twitter has announced Vine, a new video-sharing application for iOS that shows six-second clips in a loop and posts them to Twitter and Facebook.
Twitter wrote in a blog post. “Like Tweets, the
brevity of videos on Vine (6 seconds or less) inspires creativity. Now that you
can easily capture motion and sound, we look forward to seeing what you
create.”
Vine will compete in the same space as other
“Instagram for video” apps like the popular GIF-making app Cinema gram. Twitter
acquired Vine before its launch, according to Vine’s blog .
“Our companies share similar values and goals;
like Twitter, we want to make it easier for people to come together to share
and discover what’s happening in the world,” Vine writes. “We also believe
constraint inspires creativity, whether it’s through a 140-character Tweet or a
six-second video.”
Twitter said it is working to bring Vine to
“other platforms” in the future. We assume that means it’s quickly working on
an Android .
