With the continuing advent of social media networking and popular social media apps, Facebook is seeing a significant decline in popularity. New apps such as Instagram, Pinterest, Vine, Twitter and others, are rivaling Facebook in the social media market, as Facebook now finds itself dropping in popularity and losing users due to the increase in competition.

With the advent of the latest mainstream app, Vine, short videos can go viral as fast as ever, giving the chance for anyone to get their “15 minutes of fame.” The Vine app came onto the social media scene on January 24, 2013, and within two and a half months, it became the number one “free app” in the United States. Although a majority of the videos aren’t funny, every once in a while users, can find a gem that can leave users laughing.
