Mindie Adds Direct Video Messaging

<p>Music video app Mindie has released version 2.0 of its app in the App Store, which adds a number of new features including a private messaging feature. This new use case looks and feels more like Snapchat than Vine's new direct messaging feature. Other features include the ability to add text on your videos, share on Instagram and more.</p><p>At heart, Mindie remains a music video sharing app. When you record a Mindie, you first pick a song. Then, you shoot a few seconds of video like you would in Vine, and share it on Mindie, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.</p><p>This video format is what makes Mindie unique. "It's very complicated to shoot an interesting video, but if you put music on an awful video, it will make it interesting," co-founder and CEO Gregoire Henrion told me when he first presented me the app.</p><p>But now, the main difference is that you can send videos to a person in particular. He or she will get a notification and you don't have to publicly share your video at all.</p><p><a href="http://techcrunch.com/2014/04/09/mindie-adds-direct-video-messaging/">Keep reading...</a></p>
