periscope-app

When I was a kid my secret desire was to be on television. Well, that didn’t happen – yet –  but, there is still hope. Periscope, a FREE app from Twitter , that lets you broadcast live from anywhere you have a connection to the Internet and people can chat with you live (type questions), and visually experience exactly what you’re seeing will make my dream finally come true. It is one of the most fun social media experiences I’ve had. As my son says, “It’s addictive!”

I love the immediacy it provides — you decide to share what you’re doing/seeing, etc. and bam — it’s live, and people who have Periscope (or are following you on it), can see it right now.

For example, I had to get some new sprinkler heads today and people were able to follow my journey — as it happened.  I’m happy to report that my sprinkler system is working just fine. now.

To become a part of this new social media revolution (and it’s been a while since somebody’s come out with something as cool as this), here’s all you have to do:
