360 video, is a recent trend that I am unable to digest. The only possibility I see is a VR headset where it shall succeed. Does this (360* video) trend wants users to focus on content or his's struggle to find interesting moments by dragging the scene? Can human mind digest voluminous content? Is this how the TV/screen has been for last 50 years? In a browser, I shall prefer one dimension videos only (with one seekbar), where an editor has cut/trimmed the best scenes for me to focus on.

@ankitjaininfo Yes, but you see, when you do 360, everyone pats you on the back for being innovative.

I was confused about how this could be useful for SMBs until I saw your example video. Love it. So cool to see the recipe and close up show in one view while getting a sense of the space. Excited to see where this goes!

This is kind of neat, but the applications are pretty limited, IMO. As a client, it would be fantastic to see Wistia applying more energy to improving some of the basics like playlist functionality.

@andyfossett thank for your thoughts, Andy. Embed links are a cool option if you're not happy with our current playlist functionality: http://wistia.com/doc/embed-links. You can always email us at feedback@wistia.com.

@mollywolfberg @wistia Oh, I've emailed, and I know all about embed links. They are a terribly cumbersome stop-gap.
Molly
@andyfossett Noted. We'll be sure to reach out for your thoughts when we are working on playlists.
