Vine [caption id="attachment_237451" align="alignnone" width="720"] Image credit: Medium.com[/caption] I'm pretty sure all of you are familiar with Vine. Vine is pretty much what became the blueprint to incorporate video as a medium for social media. In December 2015, Vine has 200 million active users. However, in 2013, when Instagram added its 15-second video sharing which later on expanded with additional features, Vine didn't stand a chance. According to Vine's former executive interview on The Verge, Instagram Video was the beginning of the end of the platform. In October 2016, Vine officially shut down. Then fast forward to January 2020, Vine’s co-founder Dom Hofmann, has officially launched Byte, a short-form video app for iOS and Android. Another similar platform TikTok reminds me of, even more than Youtube is Vine, which was a short-form video hosting service just like TikTok.
