Vine co-founder halts development of its replacement, V2
There will be no “Vine 2” — at least for now. Trying to take on the giant social networks without external funding proved too tall a task for six-second video app Vine’s co-founder Dom Hofmann. “I’ve made the very difficult decision of postponing the V2 project for an indefinite amount of time. There are several reasons […]

Oh, Vine. If there’s one app whose disintegration still stings, Vine’s definitely it.
But now, a new app is attempting to pick up where Vine left off. It’s called Oevo, and the app will be refreshingly familiar to former Vine lovers.

Here’s how Vine replacement v2 will work
First, don’t call it “Vine Two”. Details are starting to emerge about v2, the forthcoming video app built to replace Vine by its former co-founder Dom Hofmann. TechCrunch has learned that v2 has begun reaching out to former Viners and social media star managers in hopes of establishing ties with some top content creators to get feedback and fuel the app’s eventual… Read More
Vine’s been gone for a year, but we still think about these Vines every day

It’s been a year since Vine kicked the bucket, but that doesn’t mean we’ve forgotten our favorite six-second vids.
On Jan. 17, 2017, the Vine app became Vine Camera, and users were rendered unable to post new videos to the Vine community. But did this mean we stopped watching Vines? No! Thanks to YouTube and the Vine archive, which works only sometimes, we’ve been able to watch old classics like Peanut Butter Baby and Maple the Dog whenever our hearts desire. Mostly.
Here are nine sweet, sweet Vines we still think about every day. Rest in peace, beautiful social network — we can’t wait for your next iteration. Read more…

You know that feeling when you’re bored so naturally you draw detailed screenshots from popular Vines on Post-It notes?
Neither do we. But that didn’t stop one impressive artist.
Twitter user @zephanijong started a thread last week of her favorite Vines drawn as “bad” sticky note doodles.
They were incredible, and of course, the internet ate them up.

HQ Trivia is letting Android users pre-register for the live-streamed trivia game built by the makers of Vine, Rus Yusupov and Colin Kroll.

Actress makes 1,000 mini-movies while ‘Waiting for Godot’ … and is still waiting

If the waiting is indeed the hardest part, then Lauren Evans has probably suffered enough.
The Los Angeles-based TV and indie film actress on Tuesday posted her 1,000th installment of “Waiting for Godot,” a series of social media-sized short films that she started as a lark – the first one occupied her time while a casting director was running late for a meeting – and have continued apace for the better part of four years.
As of this writing, and all those mini-movies later – a thousand of them! – Evans is still waiting for her Godot. But maybe not much longer? Read more…
