YouTube founders create Mixbit: Vine-like video sharing with a difference


Recommended Posts

Social Network-backed video sharing apps are all the rage, and now the biggest boys in school have woken up to the idea. MixBit is the brainchild of Chad Hurley and Steve Chen, better known as the founders of YouTube, and is a Google Ventures-backed iOS app that lets you record up to 16 seconds of video. Unlike Vine, however, you don't just have the ability to edit your own clips, but also to remix other people's contributions to create movies up to an hour long. Another difference is that each submission is anonymous and there's no commenting system, lessening the impact of that big-budget twerking video you put together. Android users won't have to feel put out for too long, either, as the pair has pledged that the app will arrive on the platform in the next few weeks.

I know, and that's why this is so annoying, everyone copies everyone else saying they're original. Causing general chaos letting malware sneak in amongst these services masquerading as valid software. And causing people t have to be signed up to 10 different but identical services.
