Twitter adds live Periscope broadcasts to timelines

Twitter on Tuesday began weaving live Periscope video broadcasts into timelines streamed to its application tailored for Apple mobile devices. "Go LIVE and broadcast straight into Twitter!" the one-to-many messaging service's chief and co-founder Jack Dorsey proclaimed in a tweet fired off at @Jack. Twitter early last year bought the maker of the video streaming app Periscope amid surging interest in live video sharing.
