Twitter have been updating and introducing quite a few new features to Periscope recently.
The video streaming service was already doing well and now it's growing
more and more attractive to users. Now if you aren't sure whether you
want to watch a live video or not, you can watch a few highlights and see if it appeals to you or not. If you're new to Periscope or are just looking for something random then this update is really for you.
Live video can be dull and really that cannot be denied. You can find
some of the most riveting and exciting videos, but even they might have a
moment or two of fiddling or the streamer getting distracted by the
comments. But if you come across a stream a little way in, you'll be
able to see some of the best bits and see if you're willing to watch the
stream. This isn't going to work if you're deciding on a stream
that's just starting, but it'll work well once people get used to this
fact.
As well as this, users will be able to watch highlights of users channels and of hashtags.
So if you want to see what a user has done before to see if you want to
follow them, then you'll see all their best bits and if you know a
theme of a stream you want to see, then you can search and see the
highlights of the various videos going on at that time. This is a nice idea as this makes it even more user-friendly than the addition of editor's picks did.
Periscope are becoming more and more user-friendly and this should help
them keep users using this service to stream rather than Facebook.
