Instagram Live Video - Broadcast live video to your Instagram Stories 🔴

LIVE was started by silicon valley companies, but got mainstreamed in China. It goes back to US mainstream again by Ins. I guess there will more such stories go on.

Is this Zucks slow-served revenge for Snapchat not selling to Facebook? Timing is quite dubious given the news of the Snap IPO!

@rrhoover @caseynewton @bentossell wow those guys are crushing with all the new features!

Awesome excited to test when I'm alive in the morning!

Woah. If you can also share it on facebook, this will be a killer feature. Instagram is becoming the best social network in 2016, killed vine and now slowly killing snapchat and all of the live video startups trying to be. Great job Instagram, can't wait to play with it.

Would be great if I could watch the live stream (and stories for that matter) on the web app…

Snapchat is pulling a Vine. Either they have to double down on 1 to 1 messaging and filters, or give their content creators everything they possibly need to build a following and create on their platform.

5G Era is now coming!

Conclusion of the day? When Zuckerberg makes you an offer, you better take it.

Great and expected addition to Instagram. Well done.. I stopped using Snapchat when Instagram introduced stories... 10k followers on Insta compare to 300 on Snapchat!!!
