For some time now, Periscope has become one of the applications most used by all users who also used Twitter, to whom this application belongs. Quickly and in view of the popularization of this new service, Facebook friends quickly got to work on a copy of this service to offer it to all users of the social network.
A few months after the launch of Periscope, Facebook already had its alternative ready, baptized with the name Facebook Live. Facebook Live allows us to carry out live broadcasts from wherever we are and to discuss them later on our wall to be able to share it with our followers once time has passed.
But with Periscope we couldn't do it, at least until now. So far once we finish a live broadcast, Twitter stored that video for 24 hours only, and during that period we and our followers could consult it as many times as we wanted, something counterproductive to the interests of Twitter to keep users as long as possible in their applications.
Fortunately, from Twitter they have realized that it is a big inconvenience for the growth of the application and they have just updated the service to be able to store indefinitely all the videos that we create with the Periscope application. This decision has been taken to be able to stand up to Facebook Live, which as we all know does not erase absolutely anything we publish or write.
The automatic saving of the videos that we broadcast is still in beta, so it is likely that at some point it will not work as it should. To be able to talk about the videos that we broadcast we must add before the streaming title #clayIn this way, all the videos will discuss the links that have been published on Twitter and will be stored forever in our account.
