Mark Zuckerberg changes Facebook’s name to Meta

 Facebook is now called Meta, the company said on Thursday, in a rebrand that focuses on building the "metaverse," a shared virtual environment that it bets will be the successor to the mobile internet.

The name change comes as the world's largest social media company battles criticisms from lawmakers and regulators over its market power, algorithmic decisions and the policing of abuses on its services.

CEO Mark Zuckerberg, speaking at the company's live-streamed virtual and augmented reality conference, said the new name reflected its work investing in the metaverse, rather than its namesake social media service, which will continue to be called Facebook.

The metaverse is a term coined in the dystopian novel "Snow Crash" three decades ago and now attracting buzz in Silicon Valley. It refers broadly to the idea of a shared virtual realm which can be accessed by people using different devices.

Facebook planning to change its name

                                                        Facebook - the social media company that owns Instagram and WhatsApp - seems done with its household name. According to a new report, Mark Zuckerberg-led Facebook is planning to change its name to something that will show the company’s commitment towards building a sort of metaverse of services. Simply put, Facebook does not want to be known as just a social media company anymore and the identity change might be its best bet.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg may announce the new name at the Connect conference.
• The new name will bring a new identity for Facebook's metaverse.

CSK vs KKR, IPL 2021 Final: Chennai eye 4th title under MS Dhoni, Kolkata hope for repeat of 2012

 

HIGHLIGHTS

• Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders will play the IPL 2021 final in Dubai on Oct. 15
• 3-time champions Chennai Super Kings will be playing their 9th IPL final
• Two-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders have a 100 per cent record in IPL finals

ADVANTAGE CSK IN DUBAI?

The Super Kings though, will have the advantage of having more experience on this ground as compared to the Knight Riders. CSK played 4 games in Dubai out of which they won 2 while KKR played just 2 matches, winning one.

Even last year when IPL was shifted to the UAE, CSK played more games than KKR in Dubai. Dhoni's team won 4 of the 7 games played in Dubai here while KKR won 2 of the 3 they played in Dubai.

The longest season of the Indian Premier League (played over 7 months due to the Covid pandemic) is finally going to culminate in the final in Dubai on Friday night as Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders get ready to lock horns once again in a summit clash to decide the winner of the 2021 season on Dussehra.

It’s official: Apple set to launch new MacBook Pro with M1X chipset at October 18 event

 Apple has sent out invites for the October 18 event, which is likely to see the launch of the MacBook Pro with M1X. The invite doesn't say much, but the tagline reads, "Unleashed", hinting at the company's all-new chipset, which is likely to be the successor to the M1 chip.

Apple is expected to launch all-new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models at the special launch event on October 18. However, the most important thing to look out for will be the M1X processor, which will be the successor to the M1 chip that debuted last year.

The new MacBook Pro is likely to feature a mini-LED display and come with an HDMI port as well as an SD card slot. Apple is expected to remove the touch bar and bring back the traditional function keys. The new MacBook Pro models are not likely to see a major design overhaul, but we will have our fingers crossed. Apart from the MacBook Pro, Apple is also likely to announce the macOS Monterey release date.

While there aren't too many hints but Apple may also debut the AirPods 3 at the same event, but we are too optimistic about this one.
