The Metaverse: And How It Will Revolutionize Everything

Matthew Ball

Tim Sweeney

The book presents a super detailed analysis of the market and what's working (e.g. with the hundreds of millions of users who are engaging monthly), and looks into unproven hypotheses. Definitely helps bring clarity to practice vs hype.

Snow Crash

Neal Stephenson

Tim Sweeney

@MattBinder The article confuses its fictional sources. Neal Stephenson’s Snow Crash describes the metaverse as a real-time 3D social entertainment medium quite similar to these games, not as a cypherpunk economy (that’s Cryptonomicon) or a remote work collaboration medium.

The Sneetches: And Other Stories

Dr Seuss

Tim Sweeney

@MarkSpatny As with Dr Seuss’s story about the Sneetches, I hope everyone will come out of this seeing that things like checkmarks are much less important than the merit of what a user says, and that we should respect everyone’s individual choices about participation.
