Vine, the six second video sharing service have transformed the way we express our daily thoughts and feelings through video and image. Here is a list of some of the most popular vines surfing the world wide web.
Growing up as a millennial, I’ve seen all sorts of crazy trends on the Internet that lasts from a couple of weeks to a couple of months. Vine has shaped the way people talk, and has been captivating world-wide audiences in just six seconds at a time.
Vine, the video sharing platform acquired by social media website Twitter, emerged in 2012 as a digital voice for millennial youths across all cultures, and is still thriving today. In just a simple share and re-tweet, these short videos have shaped the way we understand and communicate various thoughts and feelings in the 21st century digital age.
Phrases such as “on fleek,” and “what are those?” have been incorporated in the way we express and describe daily situations.
The power of this digital tool has even launched careers for comedians, dancers and singers such as singer, Tori Kelly, actor, Destorm and former Ohio University student, Logan Paul.
No matter what way you’re feeling or any thought you have, there’s always some sort of video that recreates the “so true” moment in a six-second time span.
Here are some of my favorites within the last year:
- “Why You Always Lying?” - Nicholas Fraser
