#104Ah...the results of the race to be the "Instagram of Video". Vine is no different than any number of recent video sharing apps. Vine does nothing new but sets new arbitrary time limits on the videos they support. Just like the others Vine will try to convince you that through focus groups they have found "3 second" videos will revolutionize video sharing and discovery, but this is nothing new.

Just like I've never been on Instagram, I have no urge to join this site, but your criticism is still misguided. Placing a constraint on a creative endeavour is a old and time-tested way of tickling creativity. Pre Twitter, people didn't think they could have any kind of meaningful conversations without at least a paragraph of prose.

#106Maybe a ranking mechanism? That way you can knock out a "bestof" section for the day, week, month and so on.
Amazing idea.

#107Cool! I think you should include the title of this post ("watch the world in real time") somewhere in the actual webpage. That's really what got me to click.

#108Vinepeek makes Vine just perfect. I see thousands of great shortmovies coming.

YES. I would love a weekly bestof
