Dear MEL Topic Readers,
The metaverse: What is it and how soon will it work?
Facebook announced that it will change its name to Metaverse, where the company’s premium SNS platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp will all become parts of the new domain. Metaverse is a compound of “universe” meaning reality and ”meta“ meaning virtual reality, and abstraction refers to a third-dimensional virtual reality where the boundary between reality and virtual reality disappeared. It is a way to use the Internet through virtual reality (VR). Once you wear a VR headset, you can do all interactive activities in the virtual universe, including meeting with friends, attending a conference, watching and listening to a concert, doing shopping, and playing games. You’ll be able to take part in such activities with your avatar or without. Since no metaverse has been realized yet, only the potentials and opportunities are seen at the moment. But for Facebook, it is worth repositioning its business domain and changing its corporate name.
Enjoy reading the article and learn about this new universe that might soon be realized on the Internet.
