How to Use Periscope in Your Content Marketing

How to Use Periscope in Your Content Marketing | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

One of the hottest online trends of the summer has been the sharing of live streaming video via apps Periscope and Meerkat. Everywhere I turn I see people shooting videos of themselves (and accompanying scenery) and sharing it via Twitter and Facebook.


This phenomenon of everyday broadcasting is turning mobile phone users into solo broadcasters, sharing everything from weekend athletic events and nightclub action, to bicycle riding and scenic beach scenes. It’s nirvana for attention seekers. And it’s expected to grow: new data from Cisco shows that globally, consumer internet video traffic will be 80 percent of all consumer Internet traffic in 2019, up from 64 percent in 2014.


And it’s not just you and I using live streaming video apps, either. Already, brands and companies are tapping into the power of live streaming video to build fans and followers for the brands, and it’s certain to become a part of the digital social marketing landscape for a long time into the foreseeable future. Let’s take a closer look at one specific platform: Persicope.....

Periscope, Meerkat and the Journalism of Now | Mediashift

Periscope, Meerkat and the Journalism of Now | Mediashift | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

This semester’s Future of Journalism assignment centered on live streaming video. In the past two months, we’ve seen the emergence of two new apps — Meerkat and Periscope — that have turned streaming video into a niche experience into something that anyone with an iPhone can do. Streaming video has been around longer than these apps, available via services such as Ustream, but these apps have added simple, elegant interfaces and social sharing ease to the mix. Regular citizens and everyday reporters alike are now broadcast reporters.

(Editor’s note: A separate post on Meerkat ran last week, and our #EdShift chat at 1 ET Tuesday, April 14, will cover streaming services and their usefulness in classes and newsrooms.)

Consider what Dan Pfeiffer, the former press secretary for President Obama, said in a post recently about live streaming and the upcoming 2016 presidential campaign:

If 2004 was about Meetup, 2008 was about Facebook, and 2012 was about Twitter, 2016 is going to be about Meerkat (or something just like it)....

Jeff Domansky's insight:

Meerkat and Periscope are both interesting tools for journalism and marketing. Several Mediashift articles will help guide you in learning more. Good reading.
