If Instagram supports short video sharing

Summary

Facebook's upcoming June 20th event is speculated to unveil a short video sharing feature for Instagram, rather than an RSS reader. This functionality, internally tested by Facebook, would allow users to share 5-10 second videos directly within the Instagram platform. The initiative is widely interpreted as a strategic counter-move against Twitter's successful Vine application, leveraging Instagram's existing user base. Given past conflicts between Instagram and Twitter, and Vine's current popularity, this represents a defensive play by Facebook to maintain its competitive edge in social media.

According to TC, the mysterious press event about Facebook on 20 June may not relate to some RSS reader, it may relate to one function to be released by Instagram--Short video sharing.

This is not without proof, there was news that Facebook was testing short video sharing internally, but they were not sure about whether building a independent application with filter capability or adding the feature to Instagram. The short video should have a duration between 5 and 10 seconds.

Facebook usually wins with its speed, they defeat others with brave trails and fast speed. Here others include Vine apparently, Vine belongs to Twitter, and previously Instagram has some conflicts with Twitter, photos from Instagram cannot be displayed on Twitter Card. Now Vine is famous, Instagram belongs to Facebook now. From the experience of Snapchat, this time Vine can not get away from Facebook.

If Instagram really launches the short video sharing function, the result will not be like its Poke. But it will also not be able to stop the Vine expansion trend. It's a defend for Facebook.
