    I have a deep respect for the technical scale that FB operates at. The cyberspace we want for VR will be at this scale.

        @henryvelez @ID_AA_Carmack that is true.. I like Google+ for its communities where devs can interact with users on Android app betas

        @wilflare @ID_AA_Carmack keep in mind. Oculus is the first game and ultimately not the last. We need a vr hub. A starting point.

        @wilflare @ID_AA_Carmack I agree about the ads. Not sure about app/Dev. But that shouldn't change. Oculus really needs to stay independent.

        @JezGoonerCook @ID_AA_Carmack They already received their DK1's... why would they receive anything else? Its kickstarter not Nasdaq.

        @loktar00 @ID_AA_Carmack Was thinking more of an intimate reasoning behind the plan to sell to FB to the backers ect.

        @bigunderscorec @ID_AA_Carmack everyone hates the idea of something geek centric going "mainstream". It had to happen. Eventually.

        @henryvelez @ID_AA_Carmack It has nothing to do with mainstream, it's been that for awhile. We just collectively despise Facebook.
