A USB-C cable and a pair of wire cutters.

For years we have been thinking up ways to integrate product sales with video. Here, Amazon.com integrates live video with a linked product carousel.

Vine is cable access TV, Mac Write 1984, and web video 2005. Combined.

Vine is cable access TV, Mac Write 1984, and web video 2005. Combined. It's fun. And a mess. A fun mess.

I like it, here, let me try:

It's the iRig Mic. A microphone for your iPhone. #VineShow Thanks @garyvee vine.co/v/bJbwxiXnt1P

— Steve Garfield (@stevegarfield) January 27, 2013

Note: This video was recorded without the iRig mic. I can't get it to work with Vine. I've contacted the iRig Mic people to test.

Update from iRig Mic support:

If you are using an iPhone 5, we have seen some issues there. If that is what you are using, please do the following:

- Disconnect the iRig Mic from your iPhone 5.
- With the iRig Mic disconnected, connect headphones to the iRig Mic's headphone output.
- Connect the iRig Mic with the headphones plugged in, back to your iPhone.

This fix works.

COULD THIS BE A SHOW?
This has all the attributes of a great online show.

Short.

Sharable.

Content that evokes one or more emotions.

Real.

What do you think?

More from Mashable:

Can Brands Tell A Story In Six Seconds Or Fewer? Ritz, Dove And Trident Think So:

Now that consumers have the power to skip through commercials on programs that they record, creative advertisers have to start pushing the envelope on generating interesting and persuasive messages outside of the television set.

I spoke with VaynerMedia founder Gary Vaynerchuk, and his firm urges their clients to test new things out. When he says test it out, he means it:

I tell our companies that there’s a 72 hour rule where you’re not even thinking about an ROI or how you can generate business. They should just try things out.

Vaynerchuk’s companies are definitely giving Vine a swing, and the brands include GE, Ritz Cracker, Dove and Trident gum.
