Description

Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) has a new toy to show off this week. "A small team is working on a big idea," reads the social networking website operator's invitation for an unveiling on Thursday, and TechCrunch is hearing that it may be the addition of video to Instagram. It's a move that makes sense given the market positioning of Facebook foes Twitter and Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) when it comes to video these days. In this video, longtime Fool contributor Rick Munarriz explores why the push for Instagram video -- even with Facebook already offering clips on its namesake site -- is a smart move.
