Friends, friends, the day has come. In October 2016 Twitter announced the closure of Vine, an application that was the queen of the world and has only ended up lasting three years. In 2013 it was the app that was growing the fastest and its users were four times those of the competition. The short duration of the videos is pointed out as the main cause of the deflating of the brand. Clips of 6 seconds required tremendous inventiveness so that they did not fall into routine or repetitiveness. And so it was. Vine ended up being forgotten and Twitter announced its closure for 2017.
