Facebook recently announced that they are introducing their Watch platform to select mobile, laptop, desktop and TV app users in the US and it will be a video-centric platform to watch and discover videos. In short, this is Facebook's answer to YouTube. According to them, curated content is being currently being created, and according to TechCrunch, content creators will get a 55% share of ad break revenue.

Hopefully Facebook's Watch will also solve other issues like music revenue being used in these videos or come up with their own list of free to use video music. No news as to when we'll see it here in Malaysia but we expect it to come eventually, so stay tuned to TechNave.com and we'll keep you updated.
