Facebook to launch series of streaming apps

Facebook is officially coming to your television! The company announced Tuesday that it will be launching a series of apps for Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, and Samsung Smart TV. The new feature will allow users to watch videos you can find on Facebook, but on a much larger screen. “A lot of people when they’re watching video on News Feed during the day will save it for later because they don’t have time to watch that three-minute video. Now it’s easy to go on your TV if you want to do that at night," Dan Rose, VP of Partnerships, said during the Code Media conference. While an exact date has not yet be released, the streaming apps are expected to launch in a few weeks.
