Current Events Meetups Tampa Bay

“Meet Me in the Metaverse” happens online on Thursday, July 14 at 7 p.m.!

Hey, techies from Tampa Bay and beyond — are you interested in any of the following:

  • StartupBus
  • The Metaverse
  • Web3

We’re holding an online meetup, Meet Me in the Metaverse, on Thursday, July 14th from 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. in a web-based virtual reality space to discuss the topics above, and you’re all invited to join us! Register here to attend the event.

This isn’t going to be a Zoom or Teams meeting, but a VR meeting. And don’t worry — you won’t need VR gear — any computer with a browser will do. I took the meetup’s VR environment for a test drive, and it presented itself like a first-person shooter, minus the shooting, where you use the W, A, S, and D keys to move and the mouse to change the direction you’re facing.

Here are a couple of screenshots of what I saw during my quick exploratory run:

I’ll be there — join me! Once again, that’s Thursday, July 14th, from 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., and you can register here.
