Live Video Now On FB Pages Too

Facebook is expanding the ability for verified Pages to share live video.

Vadim Lavruisk, Product Manager at FB mentioned in his blog, “With Live, sports teams, media companies, brands and other verified Pages can make announcements, share breaking news updates, take fans behind the scenes, (and) host Q&As,”

The endeavour is being seen as a challenge to Twitter’s Periscope and other services.

As per the reports Facebook has been testing Live with a handful of pages   including U2, The White House, and Real Madrid.

It had started inviting some of its users (approx. 1.5 bn) to try live video streaming. It is working on the strategies to get the live videos viewed by a large number of audiences (friends & fans).
