What is Vine?

Twitter’s new (and free!) video-sharing mobile app, Vine, was created to serve the same purpose as its strictly-140-characters-or-less founder―to capture and share brief moments in time (six seconds to be exact) in a creative way that allows you to express yourself using a fusion of picture, motion and sound. Essentially, Vine is to Twitter what Instagram is toFacebook―a more personal, captivating and concise way to visually display what you are saying and humanize your brand.

Companies are finding Vine to be an affordable alternative to professional video marketing and are showcasing their organization’s personality and mission while finding fun ways to interact with their audiences and garner more online exposure―all at no cost.
