360-degree videos represent a novel form of visual content. Instead of watching a static scene from a camera, users can swipe across the screen to explore all angles, from top to bottom, left to right, even before and after logging into Facebook. Isn't that amazing?
Similar to Youtube, to watch 360-degree videos on Facebook, users need to use a mouse or rotate their phones left or right. Overall, its structure and operation are no different from Youtube's, but its impact and reach will undoubtedly be greater because Facebook offers easier sharing functionality.
