If you’ve been on Facebook any time in the past six months, you’ve probably seen a new feature they’ve been promoting rather aggressively: Facebook Live, a live-streaming video option available for both individuals and brands, alike. (In fact, the social networking giant wants you to use this functionality so badly, they’ve even begun running television ads for it.)
Even though Facebook is making a big splash with live-streaming, it’s not a new concept. Thanks to Facebook, however, it’s now being viewed much more relevant and easy to deploy as a native content type, enabling immediate broadcasting and engagement opportunities, with the click of a single button – no muss, no fuss.
