Vine’s six-second video loops are the latest forum for today’s Internet Famous. Like YouTube and Instagram, Vine now hosts online celebrities with giant, legitimate followings. Here at ReadWrite, we’ve told you about how Vine stars spawned real-life teenage pandemonium, and also how some short video celebs branch off to become stars on other platforms like Snapchat.
For the uninitiated, Vine is a video-sharing service, created in 2012, and acquired by Twitter in October of the same year. The service allows users to upload 6 second videos that constantly replay on loops. Popular “Viners” are lauded for conveying humor, information, or creativity in such a fleeting portion of time.
