Soon you’ll be seeing brands promote films and other products using video.<\/p>\n
Twitter showed an example of a Promoted Video in a user’s feed. The trailer for Fifty Shades of Grey is displayed underneath a tweet with a blue play button. Tap on it and the video will start playing.

Twitter hopes giving users more video will make it “richer and more engaging.”<\/p>\n Source: Twitter<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n Facebook fixes iOS app bug to reduce crashes by 50%<\/a><\/p>\n Why Facebook Messenger permissions aren’t unique or dangerous<\/a><\/p>\n Facebook Paper still exists, gets performance and design improvements<\/a><\/p>\n VSCO Cam gets social in latest Android update<\/a><\/p>\n 4 apps to make your smartphone even smarter<\/a><\/p>\n Follow Lewis on Twitter: @lewisleong<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" There’s no escaping video ads.
