Twitter Vine app hacked by 16 year old Web developer

Will Smidlein, 16, hacked Twitter’s Vine app for Android, a new way to share video on Twitter. The free app enables people to record and share clips of up to six seconds with other Vine users as well as on Twitter and Facebook. This video of Rick Astley’s song “Never Gonna Give You Up” violated Vine’s usual code that only six second videos are posted. “Sorry, Twitter/Vine engineers,” he wrote. “I tried to keep it quiet, but the internet never forgets”
