Twitter, the now recognised platform for breaking news, has revealed that it is working on a Snapchat-like video sharing feature. The concept is to make video sharing easier on the Twitter app.

Sources close to the development, according to Bloomberg, reveals that the demo for this concept is still being developed. There is no confirmation on the final design as yet, hence the need for keeping this project under-the-radar.

It is the fervent hope that, with this new tool, things will turn around for Twitter and make it great again. The primary feature for this project is to enable and encourage users to share video-clips. Specifically, of whatever is going on around them.

The idea is very much like Periscope, but with fixed short recording times. This should do away with the messy video features that Twitter is infamous for. Tie in to other streamlining efforts that are now in place and this platform should take off at neck-breaking speeds once again.
