New Instagram Video Feature

Jun 28, 2013

Facebook recently revealed a new feature for Instagram. The new Instagram feature is the ability to share videos.

You can already share pictures and edit pictures with certain filters. Now you can share videos and edit them with the same filters. The video feature allows you to upload and share 15-second videos, reduce blurring and customize the outside frame.

The new video feature was created by Facebook because Twitter has a video app as well. Twitter’s app is called Vine and you can upload and share six-second videos but they can’t be edited.

Facebook is trying to monopolize social media and if they keep it up, it might happen.
