Curious about Periscope and how to use it? Read through my Periscope bootcamp with tips and tricks to get the most out of this social media platform
Hey all! I’m sure most of you by now have heard of the newest thing in social media and video, Periscope. You can create live broadcasts and (if you want) save them for later and upload the good ones to YouTube. I’m on Periscope (@thefitcookie), but I haven’t broadcast anything yet. I’m not a natural when it comes to the camera and video, so this takes a lot of work and practice for me!
It’s me!
I have to admit, this post is actually kind of a selfish one: it was a way for me to curate some great ideas for myself! But it’s not all selfish I suppose if it helps you out too 😉
Some of these posts are about business, but they fit in perfectly for bloggers, too. Happy reading (and broadcasting)!
