EmailVimeo announced this week that it is adding support for 360 video on its platform. 360 video and VR have become increasingly popular to both consumers and producers. Just in the last year more devices to record 360 and VR have become commercially available and more platforms have integrated it as well. As more people get their hands on VR devices, the way in which stories are told using the technology will innovate and bring truly immersive experiences. We're excited to see what's next!
