Thinking about your needs and to make the dynamics more fluid and organized, Facebook will provide a series of tools that will facilitate both the technical part of the live steaming and the moderation of comments and attention to the audience.

Facebook isn’t the only one working to extend the features of its services, Google also brought a major update for those using Google Duo for group video calls.  Until recently, video calling was possible with up to eight people using Google Duo, but it is now changing. Because many people rely more on video calling because of the coronavirus to see colleagues, friends or family, Google now makes it possible to make a video call with up to 12 people.

This is ideal when you have a large meeting with colleagues, or simply want to chat with friends.
