    I’m reminded how much joy I get from new friends trying VR for the very first time. I often feel like we’re not doing enough and just scratching the surface, but they don’t see that, they get their minds blown. Nice short break from my constant self-push to recognize where we are

    Two years ago I wrote "Oculus Quest is the only VR headset that you should care about" and with the Quest 2 it's still very true. I think we're two generations away from a headset that everyone would buy.

    In video meetings it's a hassle to unmute just to say one word especially if someone else is speaking. I created a video lens that uses hand gestures to show comic-book style messages instead. So far it's been pretty fun!

    The coolest thing about VR/AR right now is how passion driven it is - not a lot of money, but a whole lot of love. Enjoy it. Make friends. Find out who cares. Because the moment money starts flowing, the community will change in a heartbeat as opportunist vultures come.
