vine importer

Very smart move, Giphy.

While the Internet is mourning being too little too late for the shuttering of the six-second looped video app Vine, know that all that viral content isn’t going to fall by the wayside. 

.GIF sharing service Giphy has capitalized on the moment and developed a “Vine importer” that will allow all of your clever six second visual jokes live on, sound included, well beyond Vine in their same basic form. 

Thank goodness this exist as we’re pretty sure the Library of Congress hasn’t gotten around to archiving Vine videos like they have tweets.
