Facebook has quietly launched a new feature for Live videos that produces sharing your screen an easy experience. instead of downloading a third-party service, you’ll now simply click the “Share Screen” button that appears once you enter the Live module on desktop. TheNextWeb’s Matt Navarra has discovered the new sharing option, which does not seem to be experimental, because we were able to activate the feature for our account even outside the us.

When you click on the Share Screen option for the first time, a pop up will ask if you want to add the “Facebook Screen Sharing” extension. we tested it out and successfully installed it on Chrome. After that, a module can appear asking if need|you would like|you wish} to share your entire screen or if you just want to share a specific tab or a specific application. As TheNextWeb said, it’s pretty basic — you cannot insert a video of yourself on the lower corners while you stream your screen, for instance. It does not produce the clearest videos either, but if you do not stream for a living anyway, the option looks good enough to use whenever you want to share with friends.
