Facebook's New Grand Plan To Draw You In
Facebook's New Grand Plan To Draw You In Enlarge this image toggle caption NPR NPR Facebook's CEO gave a public address on Tuesday in Silicon Valley, laying out the company's grand plan for the next year. It sounded as if Zuckerberg were about to lay out for his audience — the people helping to build his platform — what they all need to take seriously: That people sometimes hijack the app to broadcast gratuitous violence, to wage propaganda wars with "fake news," to bully and to hate. The company is releasing an initial version of "Facebook Spaces," a new virtual reality app that lets you hang out with your Facebook friends in VR as 3-D cartoon characters, or avatars. But Ryan Pamplin, vice president of sales at augmented reality company Meta, says in an email that Facebook is "uniquely positioned" to take them from the gamer community to the mainstream.
