After talks about a new third party app that allows news sites to exclusively publish their news content, the social media giant Facebook continues the momentum as they introduce their new video embedding structure.

According to Mashable, manager of Facebook's product marketing Deborah Liu reveals that users can now share and enjoy their videos uploaded via Facebook anywhere around the web; using the social media site's new embedded video feature.

This is the social media site's way to compete against Google's YouTube, who is one of the first video streaming sites to house the same embedding feature.

Tech Crunch reported that this move will make Facebook an all-in-one social media site. With the new video embedding feature, if a user would want to share a video to his blog or a certain website, the user won't have to use YouTube or any other video streaming site. Instead everything will be on Facebook.

Aside from the video embedding feature, Facebook will also launch a new plug-in for their comments.

Lui reveals that this plug-in will allow a user to comment on any Facebook shared content across the web, and that comment will also appear on the original Facebook post.

This will engage more interactions and discussions within Facebook and throughout the web, allowing more people to join as explained by Lui.

Now that users can share their profiles, chat with friends, build business pages, and now even share videos, Facebook is slowly becoming the source of everything a neitizen needs.
