Hardly any other sales channel in video commerce has as much potential as decentralized online shopping with video widgets.
While the German market is just now seeing first applications, US and Canadian firms are already a step ahead. Overlay.tv is moving clearly in the widget direction.
"You can now share your Overlays directly to your Facebook account. Well, technically you could always "share" any Overlay on Facebook, but it was just the URL that linked to our site. Now you can share the working player right in Facebook and do it from the player itself.
You'll be prompted to sign into Facebook and once you do so the Overlay player will appear on your profile page and in the feeds of any friends that follow you.
The Overlay player in Facebook works like it normally would with all its functionality including clickable hotspots."
