Facebook changes name to Meta
Date posted on DIARY directory: Friday 29th October 2021
Facebook has changed its name to Meta to focus on helping people connect, find communities and grow businesses. The "metaverse" aims to be a hybrid of today's online social experiences, which is sometimes expanded into three dimensions or projected into the physical world. It will let you share immersive experiences with other people even when you can't be together, and do things together you couldn't do in the physical world.
CEO Mark Zuckerberg said: "The next platform will be even more immersive — an embodied internet where you’re in the experience, not just looking at it. We call this the metaverse, and it will touch every product we build."
