I read @mijustin's post on our VR world - creating your dream home in VR.
I think this part of it is inevitable. Obviously travel for real when you can afford to. But this could be interesting for people who cannot travel for whatever reason, or even checking out a destination before you go!

@bentossell @mijustin I agree and love the post.
I think the next step is depth scan cameras (as are in Google Street View cars) which means we'll be able to walk around in most of the big world cities and travel destinations in full VR. This will change the entire travel industry in ways we can't really imagine yet I think.
It potentially makes ordinary travel boring as it can be done in VR. So IRL travel will have to evolve in to offering experiences that aren't possible in VR. What those are only time will tell.

@bentossell @levelsio this is 💯.
Flying to Budapest and back from my place would put 2.80 tonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere. I'm making a consciousness decision to fly less (I'm trying to get down to 3 round-trips per year to start).
For folks like me, tools like this could allow us to explore the world... and eventually meet people from those countries as well. All virtually. I think it's awesome. 🙌

@bentossell @mijustin I'd prefer to travel through time instead of space. Every time I walk around London , I'm thinking how cool it would be if I could do a AR walk through different time periods.

@mijustin @bentossell @levelsio teleportation would be so much cleaner.

@levelsio @bentossell @mijustin any plans for offering a free trial? Or is a paid membership required to try it even once?
