Soon Facebook, the most popular social network in the world, will consist only of videos. A somewhat risky prediction?
This was stated by an important person: Nicola Mendelsohn, vice president of the popular social network for Europe, the Middle East and Africa. “If I had to make a bet I would say: video, video, video,” she told the audience at Fortune's Most Powerful Women International Summit which was held in London.
In fact, there is less and less written text on the message boards of common users. It has also been calculated that in the last year the daily views of videos on the platform have gone from 1 to 8 billion thanks also to the launch of Facebook Live live streaming.
“The best way to tell a story these days is video, it provides a lot of information in a very short time,” Mendelsohn said. Text is in decline and doesn't engage users as much as a well-made video. Will we have to resign ourselves to saying goodbye to texts?
