Had a play with it over the weekend. VERY impressive. The iOS app is very slick, super easy to use and fun to.
Takes 30 seconds to set up and be broadcasting. Quite scary really.
Live broadcasting is nothing new but now it's using Twitters social power and their back end it could be a game changer in my opinion. Think live news reports by members of the public. "Periscoped/Periscoping" are now real words apparently!
I won't be broadcasting much but I'll tune into streams that interest me when I have time.
Yep I've been using it quite a bit, getting push notifications when someone I follow on Twitter starts broadcasting is very cool. Chris Hadfield (astronaut, not currently in space) has been broadcasting quite often. It's an interesting experience, not one-on-one but sort of feels like it. Reggie Watts has done a couple of very funny broadcasts too.
