Pornhub tells Twitter to Sell Vine to them

Pornhub tells Twitter to Sell Vine to them

Recently, Twitter made it Public that it would be Shutting down the Vine app, a short-form video sharing service founded in 2012, where users can share six-second-long looping video clips. It seems adult site pornhub does not want to witness the death of such platform as they have shown an interest in acquiring it, with the believe that it would serve them week despite the limited video length of just six seconds.

I know some of us dont know Pornhub, Pornhub is a pornographic video sharing website and the largest pornography site on the Internet.
In a letter from Pornhub VP Corey Price to Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, he opined that acquiring the vine platform could help twitter in terms of finance and help them (pornhub) to serve their customers better. A part of the letter read;
“We figure since Twitter has dropped (Vine) and is having significant layoffs, that you and your stakeholders could benefit from a cash infusion from the sale of Vine. Not to mention we would be saving Vine gems like ‘Damn Daniel,’ ‘Awkward Puppets’ and many more.”

The company said it would not delete any Vines that have been posted — for now, anyway. “We value you, your Vines, and are going to do this the right way,” the company said in a Medium post. “You’ll be able to access and download your Vines. We’ll be keeping the website online because we think it’s important to still be able to watch all the incredible Vines that have been made.”

This, above is exactly what has led me to think they might not consider selling to Pornhub, even though the offer came after the statement was made. But come to think of it, what is the rationale behind leaving the videos lying fallow on the internet when you can sell it off and increase your purse.

This might also be Twitter’s plan to prevent potential buyers from thinking it is a panic-sell. Now that someone has brought an offer, they would have more bargaining power. I’m just saying.
Looking at it this way, do you think it would be polite to vine users, if the platform is sold to a ponographic site like PornHub. I don’t think so, but let’s hear what you think.

You Can Now Post 140 seconds Long Video on Twitter Vine

You Can Now Post 140 seconds Long Video on Twitter Vine

There must be something so special about number 140 that twitter find it difficult to run away from. That is why they’ve been busy lately updating their services.

Here are the latest updates on Twitter:

Twitter has announced that the video limit has been extended from 30 seconds to 140 seconds. That’s 2 minutes and 20 seconds. Twitter previously restricted videos to 30 seconds. The new 140-second video limit also applies to Vine, which previously had a six-second limit.

Twitter will start allowing video publishers to make money out of their content on Vine, its video streaming service.

Vine will use Twitters Amplify Open program, which runs ads before a video starts playing.

Twitter also launched "Twitter Engage", a mobile app that allows users with a large number of followers to track their posts and see what their fans are tweeting about.

You’ll recall that Instagram allows users to post videos as long as 60 seconds, while Facebook Live limits videos to 45 minutes. Snapchat has a limit of up to 10 seconds.

I must say this a good move from twitter… If you are a video creator, it’s time to monetize your content.

Vine is shutting down soon

Vine is shutting down soon

Vine was the perfect platform to compliment Twitter. Users could film micro clips within 6 seconds that would loop over and over. And the resulting content is nothing short of Amazing. Many “internet personalities” gained popularity on the platform, and the six-second limit resulted in some really creative videos.

Twitter re-strategized Vine by increasing its 6 second time limit to the same number of characters that are in a Tweet: so 140 seconds. This changed the platform and perhaps chased some die-hard users of the platform away.

Following the announcement that Twitter was going to cut 8% of its workforce, the company announced its discontinuation of the micro-vlogging platform.

In recent months, Twitter has been focusing its resources into Periscope, the blogging platform’s live-stream sub-platform.

However, Twitter says it isn’t making any changes to Vine just yet. The site and app will remain in commission for the time being. But given Twitter’s new plans: “in the coming months, we’ll be discontinuing the mobile app,” and “you’ll be able to access and download your Vines,” it appears that Twitter will notify users some time well ahead of the shutdown, giving them a chance to download all their creations.
