Sharing a favorite moment from a Twitter live stream is now going to be easier with what 9to5Google describes as a “YouTube-style timestamp” feature for the social network’s mobile apps. Aptly called Timestamps, the feature will let you tweet from a specific point of the video. So your tweet will reflect what part of the video you wanted to focus on. When sharing you just need to slide to a specific point of the live stream (or replay video) and that is the starting point of the video that your followers will see.

On top of this, those watching live video streams that are still broadcasting, you can easily skip to what’s currently happening by tapping on “live” at any time so you can catch up. This is open for all types of streams, whether those from professional content publishers or those just broadcasting for their phones.
