Facebook buys Oculus so You can have virtual Sex

But he will start with virtual- shopping and classrooms.

Facebook is buying Oculus VR, a startup that makes virtual reality headsets, in a $2 billion deal. That’s a hefty sum considering that the company has not yet released a consumer-ready product.

While Oculus is today focused on gaming, Zuckerberg gave a few examples of other uses the technology could have in the coming years. He described being able to virtually sit court side at a game, communicate face-to-face with a doctor, or shop in a store while feeling like you’re actually there.

Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg says the virtual reality technology he bought will offer more than just gaming. The device is nearly impossible to describe. It makes you feel like you're truly immersed in a virtual environment. It's one of those things you have to try to fully understand.

Yes, Facebook's mission is to make the world more open and connected. Zuckerberg said in a statement. “Oculus has the chance to create the most social platform ever, and change the way we work, play and communicate.”

Internet access to everyone with internet.org

Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg has announced the launch of Internet.org, an initiative to bring internet access to everyone on the planet. Zuckerberg published a mission statement accompanying this launch, addressing some of the issues that Internet.org will have to face.

Zuckerberg hope this rough plan can serve as a blueprint for some of what we’ll all need to do to connect the next 5 billion people.

we become subscription junkies

Netflix, Dropbox, Spotify, Gmail, Skype, Cable TV, WOW and at the office we are virtual also. We just rent the service we need; Salesforce, Soonr, Amazon, Google, e-conomic, even the office space is a virtual office and please don’t forget the daily fruit basket subscription. 

Hey, why not using outsourced personnel as your workforce, so now you have a virtual office, with virtual employees, talking via a virtual telephone switch, saving all the documents in the cloud…

A survey at the University of Chicago, Northwestern, Berkeley, Columbia, and the University of Pennsylvania. Respondents estimated spending $18.65 per month on current subscription services, such as Amazon Prime, Dropbox Pro, Spotify, etc., but noted a willingness to spend over $45 monthly long-term.

One day, Mark Zuckerberg will ask us for $ 1 per month. Suddenly, Facebook Inc., will receive a revenue of half a billion to one billion dollars every month, or maybe even more...

Today you can’t login or create an account at some services, if you don’t have a facebook account. I don’t like to be forced into a subscription, that’s a little bit too much.​

Understand me right, I like today’s possibilities and tools, but we need to sit back and reflect on the consequences of such openness and freedom. We need to pick the right subscriptions and manage them properly!

I have a life outside Facebook also, but unfortunately I forgotten my password and my subscription was cancelled :)
