There’s a new Facebook Live Update. Unlike Instagram’s, there is nothing broken so far!
For all us regular folks, we can now livestream through pages! Since the first Live update, it was pretty much exclusive to celebrities and verified businesses. This is something we’re really excited about and one of the updates that we’ve really been looking forward to. If you’ve been keeping up with us recently, you’ll know that we’ve been experimenting with LIVE and Snapchat (Add us – Optician1), and have been waiting for this update for a while now. Facebook’s also added the options to livestream on groups and events. From Facebook’s official statement “ Live in Groups allows you to broadcast to just the people in the Facebook Group – so you can go live in your family group, or share a workout plan in a fitness group. Live in Events means you can go live from a birthday party to allow those that can’t make it to join the fun, and a performer can go live backstage to the people who’ve RSVP-ed to the event to give them a sneak peak. You can even use Events to schedule a live Q&A session.”
As part of this update, Facebook has started getting created and have added the option to switch through filters in-stream, “coming soon we’ll add the ability to draw or doodle on your video while live.”
Another feature added this week, and probably one of my favorite additions added by Facebook, is Live Map.
“People don’t want to miss out on great broadcasts that are live right now. So today, we’re starting to roll out a dedicated place on Facebook’s mobile app where you can discover live video that the world is talking about, live video from the friends and creators that matter most to you, and live video on topics you’re interested in.” – Facebook

Always embracing digital disruption – Special interest in changes in consumer behavior, how will they impact on the business
Loving social media was born from a love of digital communication and the passion for guerrilla marketing over 15 years ago I discovered Myspace and then Facebook. They did wonders for my optical business in then evolved for me doing friends social media then hiring an apprentice her salary was covered for all the friends and colleagues social media. In 2019 the opticians (Goodlooking Optics) that I owned merged with another optician the merge didn’t go perfectly and there was a conflict so I decided to completely devote myself to love social media. in January of 2019 I sold all the customers of loving social media in preparation for this big merge which I then regretted. today loving social media has 24 clients a pure passion of getting your website optimised the Page 1 with a joined up approach using social PPC And SEO Like all self-respecting digital companies, we know that we are always learning because things are always changing!
