Analysis
Musk recently said he is "considering" reviving the Vine short video service. Vine was a free mobile app owned by Twitter (now known as X) that allowed users to create short videos up to 10 seconds long and share them on social networks, such as Twitter and Facebook. On October 27, 2016, Twitter announced that it would shut down Vine as part of a company restructuring plan. Uploaded videos were not deleted. It remains unclear whether Musk will actually revive Vine, and what a revived service would look like. Some analysts believe that reviving Vine could help Twitter attract more younger users and compete with short video platforms like TikTok. However, other analysts believe that reviving Vine could distract Twitter and make it difficult to compete with existing short video platforms.
