Facebook's new name is 'META!' ∞
The company's apps and brand names stay the same. But, the 'new North Star' is to help 'bring the metaverse to life.' The company will be 'metaverse-first, not Facebook-first.'
What do you think?!
Lots of possibilities, like:
Meta Verse
Meta Apps
Meta AI
Meta Avatar
Meta Humans?! 🤪
✨🪐⭐️
Mark Zuckerberg just announced this change on the Connect 2021 live streaming event and his founders letter - excerpt:
❝From now on, we will be metaverse-first, not Facebook-first. That means that over time you won't need a Facebook account to use our other services. As our new brand starts showing up in our products, I hope people around the world come to know the Meta brand and the future we stand for.
I used to study Classics, and the word "meta" comes from the Greek word meaning "beyond". For me, it symbolizes that there is always more to build, and there is always a next chapter to the story. Ours is a story that started in a dorm room and grew beyond anything we imagined; into a family of apps that people use to connect with one another, to find their voice, and to start businesses, communities, and movements that have changed the world.❞
