With the rise of the popular photo sharing application, Instagram, and it’s recent partnership with Facebook, many start ups have been competing to claim the same seat at the top of the Facebook timeline using features familiar to iPhone owners. This time however the format isn’t in photo, but in video.

Startups such as Socialcam, Klip, and Mobli are among the competitors to gain the title of “Instagram for Video”, but with

the amount of feeds coming from Facebook users, it’s evident that the victor in this battle is none other than Viddy.

Viddy is a video sharing app that lets users capture and customise 15 second video clips directly from their mobile devices, and share it with their friends. Videos are captured in landscape, and just like Instagram, effects can be added to visually enhance the clip. The audio can also be adjusted to the required taste, and add sound tracks over the top. When customisation is complete, users can then share the video on their favourite social network.

According to it’s Co-Founder and CEO, Viddy has a strong user base of 8 million, and is reaping the benefits of the Facebook Timeline, with over 15 million interactions. There are also claims that the application is gaining around 300k new registered users per day, which is always a good sign.
