Twitter Celebrates Vine's First Birthday With 'Best Of' Video Showcase

While it’s true that Vine has done extremely well since launch, adding tens of millions of users, becoming the fastest-growing app in the world and forcing Instagram to build its own copycat feature, it’s probably fair to say that short video hasn’t really taken off to any significant degree.

Which is strange, as animated GIFs remain hugely popular.
