Facebook is building Ready Player One's OASIS. 😎 Excited to play with this.

@rrhoover Having just reread it, it's remarkable how close we're getting especially with Haptic gloves/suits in development too (by other companies)

@rrhoover I was literally about to post that, but not in a positive way :)

@rrhoover I was waiting for this.... I have prepared a new technology wide-angle selfie - @panoLite )) for remind friends that there is a real world)))

@rrhoover Yeah, but with one big difference: pseudonymity. A key aspect of the OASIS was that people could be anyone they wanted to be in VR. Facebook is intent on you staying "you." How else will they monetize you?

Facebook Spaces is a much friendlier interpretation of The Matrix than the movie.

That's FB vs Snap in essence. Facebook = alternative reality Snap = augmented reality. Peculiar shit.

Looks great and I'm excited to use a variation of this in the future but I can't see people using this in its current form #FacebookSpaces

Nice one, but those avatars look awful. 3D avatars aren't really a new thing - Sims and 1st person games in general, online chats like Second Life and IMVU all have them and they make these look really bad. Not sure if the lack of quality is caused by restraints of current VR gear?

Exciting experiment in VR by Facebook. 'Spaces represents the first .1% of Facebook’s vision for Social VR'. Eventually, Facebook wants to be a Google in the VR space... More on The Verge: https://www.theverge.com/platfor...

The avatars in Facebook Spaces look like Wii/Yahoo avatars.
