Steve Chen and Chad Hurley, the two original founders of YouTube and current team behind San Mateo-based incubator AVOS, are in the process of launching MixBit, a new social video clip service (h/t Gigaom).
The app lets users create their own sixteen-second video clips and share them with other users.
No need to start shouting “Vine!” or “Instagram!” just yet, as there’s a key differentiator: users can add to and remix videos made by other users, and create pastiche videos with lengths up to 1 hour.
MixBit is available for iOS, having just landed in the App Store, and an Android version is expected to arrive soon.
