Twitter users may soon have a new way to share videos in their tweets.
Dick Costolo, the CEO of Twitter, tweeted on Wednesday morning about making steak tartare, but unlike the more than 5,000 other tweets Costolo has posted to date, this one featured something different: a short embedded video that was made with Vine, a small video-sharing startup that Twitter acquired in October.
If Costolo's tweet is any indication, it appears Twitter is planning to integrate Vine to allow users to embed short clips in their tweets in the same way that Twitter now lets users create and share Instagram-style photos in tweets.

The Financial Review reports hearing from sources that Twitter will add Vine integration in Australia in the "coming weeks," which will allow users to share 6-second videos in tweets.
Twitter declined to comment for this story.
Would you use this video sharing option if it does come to Twitter? Let us know in the comments.
