When reading this article I could not help but to think how accurate and relatable it is. The author was able to perfectly describe how someone like me lets say would easily get entertained for a long time with such app. The apps greatest success in attracting so many people would be because recently we are living in a time where remakes of old popular things are coming to light. For example, The Lion King or Toy Story are great in showing how the public or matter a fact this generation appreciates what they once had. Just like Vine, the public finds this as a way to relive ‘vine’ moments and like the article compares them, I cant help but to agree. Using this app does in fact bring back memories and can trigger an ‘addiction’ to many users who spend hours on the app itself. The app is also very accessible to other social media which has allowed for the spread of its content.
