Social Media's New Vine

      Do you remember the good old days back in 2014-2015 when Vine was one of the most popular apps on the social media market? Everyone was quoting and talking about the hilarious creators on the internet's most beloved space. Six second videos had become the new medium for everyone in America to watch and enjoy. Then, it disappeared. Just as nonchalant as the wind blowing a leaf down the street, Vine was gone. At first it seemed nobody even noticed considering the reason it was shut down in the first place was because people had stopped using it. Yet, just like a 5-year-old, once the app was taken away everyone wanted it back. Ever since people have been Tweeting, blogging and posting about how Vine must be brought back. However, it seems those calls have possibly been answered as a new app seems to have taken its place. That app is TikTok. TikTok has a similar concept to vine. It contains short videos, up to a minute long, where creators make content with the intent to be funny, cute, follow trends or just be outright weird. At first, people mocked the app because of some of the rather interesting content it contained. Although, as more people have joined the TikTok wave the videos have progressively become better. Thus, drawing in more users and becoming the new era of Vine. TikTok has a certain allure to it because it speaks to people of all ages and genders. The app seems to have an endless amount of videos on its "for you page", and all of it is customized based on your likes. Hopefully this time around people will realize what they have before it is gone, and TikTok may hold the torch from Vine for many years to come.
