What Is The Metaverse?
For creators, it’s the next big thing on the internet
Facebook just rebranded itself as ‘Meta’ to become a metaverse company.
As Zuck said,
“I believe that metaverse is the next chapter for the internet“
But what the heck is the metaverse?
It’s a sci-fi term based on the novel Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson.
It’s a digital universe that can be accessed from anywhere through virtual reality.
As FORTUNE explains it:
a fully immersive online realm that looks similar to the real world but is computer generated.
Presence is critical
As Zuck says, for any digital interaction presence is critical.
You can’t feel a connection with someone who isn’t present.
The Metaverse will primarily be for ‘live’ interactions.
Imagine hanging out with me ‘live’ in the same room in the metaverse one day.
