The immediacy of information is what has made Twitterone of the social networks most followed and used. However, this seems not to be enough for its creators, who have acquired a new social network that is independent of Twitter but has a lot to do with it. It's called Vine and it focuses on the posting of videos Of course, from very short duration All this to follow in the footsteps of its older sister but with the content that Twitter cannot produce by itself: the videos
As we say it is a social network In this way, Vine allows you to create a user account and start uploading videos with a maximum length of six seconds but in an unlimited Thus, we can get followers and discover the creations of other users and follow themto be aware of its contents. All this emphasizing the concept of abbreviation and instantaneity Something that has led them to be bought by Twitterand share more than just their bosses.
For now only available for iPhone and iPod Touch , but hopefully it will soon reach Android, especially if they want to grow quickly. It is not necessary to have a Twitter account in order to use Vine, although we can use it for quick access if we have itIf not, we just have to create our own space independently by adding a username and password After that we can use this social network of videos without any type of restriction.
Its mechanics is very simple: just press the button in the upper right corner to start the recording At this point there are that highlight that the process is not automatic, but rather we must press on the screen for the recording to resume, pausing automatically if we lift our finger. This allows us to capture several sequences without the need for a video editor, achieving a curious montage in the end. After that, we just have to choose on which social networks to share it (Vine, Facebook and of course Twitter) and add the tagsrelevant.
The question of tags is important because, when search for new videos from the Explore tab, we can choose what we want to find: nnature, food, tutorials to know how to do something, sports, and so on. All this with the already charismatic asterisk in front of the term, own brand of Twitter
From Vine also highlights your homepage or wallIn it, very similar to what we have seen on Instagram, we can see the latest videos of the people we follow What is surprising is that, as we move around the screen, the videos begin to play automatically and with sound, only being necessary scroll up or down with one finger to see all content. Also, we can pause them just by touching them.And, of course, we can always give like (smiley face icon) or add a comment
In short, a most curious social network that could also be very important in the future of Twitter And finally this social network has its own space of storage, ceasing to depend on YouTube or Vimeo for save and publish your own videos. Although for now they remain independent of each other, only giving the option to use the Twitter account to register in Vine , and be able to share the micro-videos or vines in that .
More problems exist with Facebook who, according to the outlet The Verge , you have disabled the option to find our friends from that social network to follow them on VineIt seems that the battle of social networks is still active
Meanwhile, iPhone users around the world can now download for free the app Vine Of course, it's in English But It can be obtained through App Store
