GIFs

This article was about GIFs (you know, those little video pictures.) A thing I learned from this article is that the GIF has been around since the 80's. Another Thing I learned is that the first GIF was made in 1878 by Eadweard Muybridge. I also learned that Oxford Dictionaries chose GIF as it's Word of the Year in 2012. A thing I liked about this article is that it talked about the history of the GIF. Another thing I like about this article is that it gives examples of GIFs. A question I have about this article is Why isnt there a new thing that has taken the place of .gif yet?
