I really love the weekly round-up! I had no idea Vine was still hanging on. I feel like since Instagram introducedbasically the same video function, most people don't need two separate apps. It's interesting to see the moves theyare making to try and stay in the game. I'll also be keeping my eye on Facebook's Anthology to see if that takes offand clever ways brands can utilize that.

With organic impressions down and brands trying to offset the same by posting more, Facebook has done the rightthing by relooking the newsfeed and bringing back friends and family. Brands should focus on quality rather thanquantity.
