Twitter Real-Time Video Tweets In the Pipeline Video Tweeting Seen as Means of Boosting Twitters Social Networking Prominence

Having only earlier today offered you a heads up concerning Twitter and
Facebook coming to Xbox Live we continue with the Twitter related news
as, whilst specific details are, as yet, in particularly short supply
its being reported today that Twitter s founders are looking at rolling
out the integration of real-time video to supplement Twitters standard
text based tweeting which will allow end users to post video tweets from
notebooks and mobile devices alongside text based updates.
According to the Telegraph, as credited below, Twitter s founders are
looking at implementing real-time video tweeting in a bid to push the
Twitter medium forward as the most prominent social networking
application just when its been suggested that the service is running the
risk of stagnating rather than acting to develop and push for fresh
features in order to keep up with the times.

Of course, there are third party sites that allow Twitter users to post
video tweets " such as Twideo and Tweetube – but these have not,
to date, proved quite as popular as may otherwise be the case with the
fully integrated video tweeting functionality that s reportedly on the
cards.

Interestingly, as popular as Twitter is, with its user base presently
sitting at around the 54 million mark, the service is actually yet to
break into the black in terms of profits but this has not stopped
Twitter being valued at some $603 million.
