RIP Metaverse, we hardly knew ye
An icon in the shape of a person's head and shoulders. It often indicates a user profile.The Metaverse, the once-buzzy technology that promised to allow users to hang out awkwardly in a disorientating video-game-like world, has died after being abandoned by the business world. It was three years old.

The hype could not save the Metaverse, however, and a lack of coherent vision for the product ultimately led to its decline.

But the short life and ignominious death of the Metaverse offers a glaring indictment of the tech industry that birthed it.From the moment of its delivery, Zuckerberg claimed that the Metaverse would be the future of the internet.

The media swooned over the newborn concept:immediately following the announcement — in which the writer called it"an expansive, immersive vision of the internet." Glowing profiles of the Metaverse seemed to set it on a laudatory path, but the actual technology failed to deliver on this promise throughout its short life.
