Even inside the Fox 5 newsroom most media-savvy producers and editors had never heard of Vine -- until now. But before you know it, using Vine might be as routine as reaching for your pot of coffee in the morning.
Chris Dessi of Silverback Social explains that Vine is an app that Twitter bought even before it launched in 2012.

Vine super simplifies these complex editing machines so anyone can make a quick, compelling video.
