Have you tried Periscope? Apple released it’s best apps of 2015 today and Periscope TV received the top spot as “App of the Year“. This will come as no surprise to those of us that have become obsessed with Periscope. Considering it just released in march of this year, it’s growth has been huge with over 10 million downloads of the app so far. Periscope isn’t the first app to offer live video streams but none of the others have reached this level of popularity. It will be interesting to see if Facebook’s version of live broadcasting, called Facebook Live, will have any impact on the success of Periscope. Time will tell. Personally, I can’t imagine another app having the ease of use that Periscope has. Given what I know of Facebook on the web and mobile, theirs will not be as user-friendly.
If you haven’t tried Periscope yet, what are you waiting for? Download the app and give us a follow! For more info on how to get started read this. Check this one for my top picks of who to follow. If you are watching broadcasts on your computer, I would definitely recommend you use the app. It’s easier to use and allows you to comment and give hearts as well, making you part of the conversation.
I can’t wait to see the creative ways Periscope will be used in the near future as a source for social media, information, and marketing.

This was my first time attending and I was expecting it to be gigantic, overwhelming and impressive. Turns out I was right. These type of Fandom inspired conventions have really gotten popular and the expected attendance for this…
The fall season is in full swing here at Walt Disney World Florida. You’d never know from the weather since temperatures are hot as ever, but there are other signs. Orange and pumpkins can be seen everywhere on Main Street, the Halloween parties are three times a week (soon to be four nights in October)…
Yesterday we decided to check out Disney Character Premiere at the Orlando Premium Outlet Mall. They have some amazing deals there! I was pleasantly surprised with how current the items were. Many of the shirts are mostly in smaller and very large sizes, but there is a ton of accessories and toys as well as…
Saturday was my first time attending Disney’s Dapper Day at Walt Disney World. I’ve been seeing pictures of this event for years and was so excited to finally see what it was all about. Dapper Day is one of several unofficial Disney events. Meaning Disney Parks has no involvement in the organizing of it, and…
It’s finally here! There hasn’t been a castle show on the forecourt stage since Dream Along with Mickey ended back in April. I hadn’t even realized how much I’d missed having one. The new show, called Mickey’s Royal Friendship Faire”, debuted Friday, June 17th. It’s performed several times a day, and you could argue that there…
