Before you read this article let me put in a disclaimer. Vines are addictive. You go in with the intention of checking out one of these six-second videos and suddenly it’s two hours later and your boss is ready to kill you.
The Internet’s newest sensation to catch on in India (now), Vines are essentially Twitter’s six-second video service. Vines have a bunch of stand-up comedians, actors, musicians, the guy next door and a whole lot of other people making videos of themselves, playing pranks, dressing up as random strangers, commenting on issues and basically dealing with anything and everything that is big on the Internet at the moment.
You can check out these videos from the Vines website or simply download the Vine App. While there is a sea of vines to choose from, we’ve made your life easy with this list of 10 Viners who will make you laugh on Monday mornings and Sunday nights.
