Twitter Updates to Officially Support Animated GIFs

Twitter has updated to officially support sharing and viewing animated GIFs on the actual website as well as on Android and iOS. In a slightly weird twist of fate, it appears that the social network converts the GIFs into MP4s in order to showcase them.

Starting today, you can share and view animated GIFs on http://t.co/wJD8Fp317i, Android and iPhone. http://t.co/XBrAbOm4Ya
