Vine is Twitter\u2019s new video sharing app for the iPhone. It\u2019s still fairly new and, judging by the lack of certain important features (like, say, privacy settings), you should expect to see many updates and enhancements to this app in the near future.<\/p>\n

But, hey, I saw it on Ellen a few days ago so clearly it\u2019s a hit and we should talk about it.<\/p>\n

How the app works: <\/strong><\/h1>\n
1. Create account.<\/strong><\/h2>\n
The set up is the same as every other social media app. You set up an account, create a username, and find friends.<\/p>\n
$\"\"$ <\/a><\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
This app is a little tricky in the safety department. And by \u201ctricky\u201d I mean that it has zero privacy settings to protect accounts. I would guess that the developers will add in those features soon, but in the meantime, all videos and profiles are public.<\/p>\n
2. Make a video. <\/strong><\/h2>\n
Vine videos are created using the in-app camera, and are anywhere from 3 to 6 seconds long. Just a short 6-second-max snippet of life<\/p>\n
$\"\"$ <\/a><\/div>\n
The fun part of Vine is the way the videos are created: the camera only records while the screen is being pressed. So within your 6 second video, you can have several tiny clips. Think stop-motion video style, if you\u2019re familiar with that. Better yet, I\u2019ll just show you my favorite stop-motion Vine:<\/p>\n
(To hear the sound, unmute the video in the top left corner.)<\/p>\n
