Facebook is already planning to make social media a part of the virtual reality future. Mark Zuckerberg made a surprise appearance at Samsung’s Oculus press conference, where he announced Facebook’s plan to create a dedicated “social VR” team to determine how people will connect and share using the technology. According to Zuckerberg, although some may see VR as a personal experience, when another person joins “people find ways to interact” and it “inherently becomes social.” He also spoke to the popularity of 360-degree videos, stating that millions watch them every day and more than 20,000 have been uploaded.
