Vinepeek Is Your New Favorite Thing (For 10 Minutes)



Have you heard of the new video sharing tool Vine? Of course you haven't because you're not a nerd. 

Vine is an app that allows you to record, edit and upload 6 second video clips and then share them across the web with just a touch of a finger. Also, Twitter owns it. 

Impressed? 

Well, I wasn't blown away either which is why I haven't used it yet. However, there's a new website called Vinepeek that scrolls through uploaded "vines" in realtime. If you're still not convinced that this is cool, I dare you to go to the site and not get stuck watching random 6 second clips that strangers have filmed.

Like this one

Or this one

Admittedly, some are better than others.

I can't wait to see the clever ways people will use Vine like for porn and nasty comments. But hose two things already make up 99% of all the content currently on the web so no big deal.
