Confession: I'm 64, back in grad school, and completely obsessed with a social media app I never used.

You know that feeling when you realize you missed something important? That's me with Vine—the 6-second video app that seemed to come and go in a flash (2013-2017), but apparently changed everything.

As someone who spent decades helping people communicate complex financial concepts simply, I'm fascinated by Vine's core lesson: when you only have 6 seconds, every frame matters. Every word counts.

Turns out, this "failed" platform actually created the blueprint for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and every short-form video we scroll through today. Those perfectly timed videos your kids and grandkids make? Pure Vine DNA.

I just published my deep dive into why this matters on Medium—exploring how Vine taught us that powerful communication isn't about having more time, it's about using the time you have more effectively.

Did any of you use Vine back in the day? I'd love to hear your memories! And if you're like me and missed it entirely, what do you think about this whole "six seconds to tell your story" concept?

P.S. - Going back to school at 64 has been one of the best decisions I've made. It's never too late to dive into something that fascinates you!
