Facebook is planning to change its company name next week to reflect its focus on building the metaverse, according to a source with direct knowledge of the matter.

The coming name change, which CEO Mark Zuckerberg plans to talk about at the company’s annual Connect conference on October 28th, but could unveil sooner, is meant to signal the tech giant’s ambition to be known for more than social media and all the ills that entail. The rebrand would likely position the blue Facebook app as one of many products under a parent company overseeing groups like Instagram, WhatsApp, Oculus, and more. A spokesperson for Facebook declined to comment for this story.

Facebook already has more than 10,000 employees building consumer hardware like AR glasses that Zuckerberg believes will eventually be as ubiquitous as smartphones. In July, he told The Verge that, over the next several years, “we will effectively transition from people seeing us as primarily being a social media company to being a metaverse company.”

Seems desperate IMO

Something as simple as changing your name and logo for a company as big and established as Facebook is a big deal. It will cost a large amount of time and money. They wouldn't even be entertaining the idea if they felt it wasn't necessary.

Desperate.

The article makes it seem like the Facebook name is staying, but they are going to do what Google did with Alphabet a while ago.

Has that opening been scrapped entirely? I remember watching it when it showed on TV but it wasn't on Netflix.

Trumpsters so desperate for literally anything to bash liberals no matter how irrelevent and dead wrong

It’s hilarious that’s what started as a college student site has turned into boomer central in such a short time.
