Facebook looks at Periscope and launches streaming video in real time on its social network

Facebook live streaming

Nothing happens if you look at the great novelty that an app has allowed itself to be raised in the download stations of the different virtual stores, and you take it to yours to add more quality and a better user experience. The competition that exists right now between services, apps and different companies is brutal. Not wanting to disappear and pass to a better life, is getting the features to pass from one app to another in order to retain your audience and leave to that Periscope, when you can offer it on yours, if you have the money to invest in development and enough software engineers to launch the beta to certain users in one or two months, as is happening now on Facebook with streaming in real time.

Certain users in the United States can now access the live broadcast from Facebook, in what would be a new capacity so that family, friends and contacts can show what is happening in their lives in real time from the camera lens of their smartphones. In this way, any user that we have as a friend in this social network could receive a notification at the moment we launch the streaming so that they can join it with comments and other features also available in Periscope. Apart from this functionality, another will arrive at the same time as collages, which follows the trend seen in other apps that are having great popularity for this very reason, such as Retrica.

Live broadcasts in real time from Facebook

With the great popularity of Facebook, this ability can open a great time for this social network as for the users who usually use it and who are millions of people around the world. Who would not want to show through Facebook that moment with the family so that those who live far away can see how the candles on the grandmother cake are blown, or that new console that the cousins ​​are opening at that moment as a Christmas gift . A good horizon of perspectives opens with this ability that will take video to another level.

This functionality is being tested from a small percentage of users that are located in the United States. From what is the status update we can find it in the form of an icon. Users will be able to add descriptions about what the relay would be and see how many "viewers" they are having in real time, how many visits the recorded video has had, and the comments that are being launched as with Periscope.

Those users who want it will be able to subscribe to receive notifications when one of these real-time streams are launched so that it appears from the notification panel and click on it to access directly and not miss anything of grandma's birthday.

Collages and repercussion

Another of the great novelties will be the collages in the form of grouping videos and photos to tell a story. Nor will I remember now which app is being inspired, but it was one that he wanted to buy not long ago and another that we have talked about recently when it has become a totally free application as is Retrica.

A collage can be created by clicking on a photo, at which time the images that a user has on their phone will appear represented in such a beautiful and well-ordered way. Would be edited, deleted or added new so that the final "story" we tell appears in its best form.

So we have the collages and those live broadcasts for put the accent on multimedia content that a user can launch from his smartphone to this great social network. The ability to stream online will be very welcome by many users, although if it is offset by the need for a good monthly data quota when one is off a Wi-Fi connection. This will change over time, so Mark Zuckerberg's social network will already be prepared with this feature that wants to bring the best moments of your contacts closer through the camera lens of their smartphones in real time.
