You can now (finally!) 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 it do from the player itself. All you have to do is click on the SHARE tab of any Overlay you like and then click on the SHARE TO FACEBOOK link located inside the share window.

You'll be prompted to sign into Facebook and once you do so the Overlay player will appear on your profile page, sans carousel, and in the feeds of any friends that follow you.  See Jane. See Jane's shared Overlay.

The Overlay player in Facebook works like it normally would with all its functionality including, clickable hotspots. You can even start the creation process right in Facebook. It's not perfect yet, but were still working on ways to make the integration better so that you can have the best Overlay experience on Facebook, and anywhere else for that matter. Stay tuned!

As Shannon had posted last week, the gang here at Overlay.TV is headed off to SXSW in Austin, Texas today. Shannon also encouraged y'all (Texas style!) to drop by our Platinum Booth during Interactive for a visit, and that we'll have tons of freebies and give-aways and, on the final day, the best thing of all - FREE BEER! What Shannon forgot to mention was that if you do swing by our booth (located at station 317/416 by the way ) you'll also have the opportunity to get laid ... *ahem* I mean get Overlayed. What does this mean exactly? Well I think that y'all will just have to c'mon down to our booth and find out for yourselves We'll be posting more once were down Austin way, so stay tuned for updates. Soon you’ll be able to tell all your friends - I GOT OVERLAYED @ SXSW!
For now, please sit back and enjoy the Overlay below:
