Facebook Live: Crap? I thought so too...

" Yep", I thought...

"I make video for a living, and now bloody FB are doing Live streaming and whoops, I'm out of a gig."  
It might still be true... but I doubt it.

"And it's Crap!" I thought... 

Who wants to see a bunch of idiots with the camera bobbing around motion-sickeningly in front of their massive shiny foreheads with their washing machines in the background?? ...and sure, some of the videos I've seen are like this, but some aren't.  

Let me give you some examples of when my mind started being changed miniscule bit by bit!

1. First I watched some New York Times FB LiveStreaming... informed interviewers interviewing interesting people, what's not to like?
2. Then I tuned in when my friend Seppo FB LiveStreamed on his drive through the picturesque Kansas countryside and we had a weird but fun chat-of-sorts.
3. Then I loved it when I signed up for a FB LiveStream 7-day-challenge thingi, which was fantastic!  And all through bloody FB Live. (Cheers Caz from Writally!)

People still make silly mistakes with terrible quality sound and don't think about the background or check the angle (hellllooooo tiny person in the massive frame there... ever heard of headroom?), and some people will not SHUT UP about how amaaaaazing their NEW THING is, but we can weed them out, can't we? They'll soon learn.

Perhaps I should tell them?  Check out my FB Live Stream soon! (joke, will never happen)
