More importantly how do you know which ones are passing trends and which ones you need to invest in? Here is a little overview of what's steeling the headlines at the moment.

Periscope

When it comes to live video streaming, Periscope is the new kid on the block (after giving rival app Meerkat a run for its money in the headline stakes) and it’s also Twitter’s latest acquisition. By linking to your Twitter profile, Periscope lets you stream live video content to all of your followers, which is great news if you’re looking to gain exposure for your next experiential campaign. This will prove invaluable when there are celebrity performances and surprise viral stunts where immediacy is key. An added bonus? Viewers are able to interact with the video via likes and comments on the video stream, which can generate masses of online buzz. By the click of a button you are able to see live streams from all over the globe. But if you’re planning to stream a video remember….it’s live so ensure you use it wisely.

Thunderclap

Thunderclap uses the power of the crowd to amplify brand messages and campaigns. Ever wanted the whole of Twitter to tweet about an event at the same time…well now you can. Once someone signs up to a Thunderclap campaign a specific message will be tweeted out from their account on a specific time and date. Thunderclap is a great service to use if you’re planning a product launch, allowing your brand to flood Twitter with your launch messages at one specific time, drastically increasing your reach.
