Metaverse future with Glide

Yesterday the company Facebook Meta launched what will be the future of technology and connectivity - the Metaverse.

We know this will take years to happen, but the idea is that future technologies, applications and even the way the internet works today will change a lot.

I recommend you see at least half of this keynote so you understand what we’re talking about.

That leaves a healthy question.

How can Glide evolve within Metaverse? :rocket:

sorry… but this is the worst idea ever!
people need to start going back to the real world with real friends that they can have real conversations face to face at a close distance… we are getting way too far apart.

I :purple_heart: disruption and have a Vision to integrate in some capacity not the meeting room as it is, but a bar for only the mood part of each participant.
An empathy bar.
For very strategic yet genuinely human life-valuable purposes.

I know it will attract way too many people… make way too much money… my point is, it will push reality, steps away from where needs to be for most of the people to exist.
I see everyday kids stepping onto a busy road looking at their cellphones… driving while texting… not working while watching the internet influancers making tons of $ just by posting stupid things…
I sow that China banned social media for kids limiting it just to one hour or so… i know it is against freedom, but I totally support that!

We’re not talking about it @Uzo. If I use it in a future, maybe will be for work, as I miss more features in my case. But my question was clear

I think the future should be how to empower people with the most democratic resources.
Like Glide can empower non-dev in field they would never dare to dream of years ago, and without expensive elite scholarship fees & other expenses to access and learn.
More durable Investments.
Where we still have our body, 6 emotions, 5 senses free of move to stay aware of real life, while maximizing technology as a reliable ally to delegate tedious parts that can help respect more people (less “subaltern” mindset Thks to technology alignment)

I agree that platforms like Glide are a much better way to learn than school…
I just can’t stand any more FB or Twitter-like platforms…
I can go on with other bs like bitcoin, stock market, religions… scary part is that today technology advance is so quick, that any regulations will come too late… and if are warry about climate change, these things will destroy us way faster!

Great question! Seeing your post made me want to go watch Ready Player One :joy:

Great movie. And tech has always moved faster than what society thinks it’s prepared to handle. Good discussion starter to think how it will apply to user behavior and mobile apps in the future. :+1:

@david we know this is a bit far from now, but I’d really like to know what’re your thoughts about how the apps may be in metaverse.

  • Do you think the app will look the same we’re used to nowadays but in Augmented Reality or maybe in a different way?
  • Will Glide follow this somehow in the future? If yes, how do you guys assume that?

I found two nocode platforms for creating metaverses
It seems the second one can connect with api to other platforms…

They’re interesting!

The first one seems to work fine. I haven’t created a json file yet but the second one doesn’t seem to work.

Hi Lucas, thanks for sharing this informatoin - i have been doing quite a bit of research myself to try and anticipate the whole AR ; metaverse and NFT space… id like to share a few thoughts here for some discussion:

  • the big brands have by now already jumped on the metaverse “band-wagon” by creating commerce spaces in existing metaverse games like roblox etc. - some of them have even started to create their own metaverse’s like Nike launched Swoosh very recently - still in beta
  • here in South Africa, we also have a metaverse - called ubuntuland, which seems like the guys used a digital art gallery as the starting point to create awareness… i am finally starting to understand the hype around NFT’s
  • further to this, i follow quite a few futurists & singularity university and most of them already predicted metaverses many years ago - the trend towards the metaverse seem to been driven by predicted human behaviour where people want to “cacoon” - meaning, people want to be able to work; play; shop; sleep ; socialise…everything from within their homes… i think covid has also fast tracked this - and i recently saw they have developed the first “touching” experience in the metaverse (dont ask me the details as it confused me so hecticly"

all future thoughts aside… im trying to bring all of this into my little world of enabling my clients to offer a better customer; employee experience… from a marketing campaign perspective ive been trying to figure out, what if i could create a branded app for my client that owns a shopping centre:

  • shoppers can just like always view the shop directory etc,
  • but what if they could also view AR street art; AR advertisements etc through that same app -
  • i get that PWA cannot talk to OS controls but what would our next step then be to enable those kind of experiences?
