Periscope
Ever wonder what it’s like to be front-row at a ZZ Top concert? Maybe you want to know how it feels like to sit inside a coffee shop in Berlin. Maybe you just want to share your grocery shopping experience with your kids! Periscope is a fun solution and showcases live-streaming videos from around the world! Not only is this a fun app to use in your free time, but it’s also another social tool to promote your event, venue or destination! Periscope allows you to broadcast your organization’s voice across the globe. Some great ways to promote your event through Periscope is by interviewing a performer or important figure in the community. You can also make major announcements like a concert lineup or even offer a special promotion. Also, anything you film on Periscope can be saved and then reused on other social media channels!

Speaking of LinkedIn, you can create a custom newsfeed of your professional network with LinkedIn Pulse. Pulse instantly gives you news based on the people you’re connected to, what you follow and what industry you’re in. This app is able to quickly display content that is relevant to you. We recommend this app in the morning with your first cup of coffee!
