In the 1990s, the internet upended almost every aspect of our lives. Then came smartphones, which allowed us to take the internet with us. And now, if you believe the hype, a new revolution is here.
"CBS Mornings" is starting a new series, "Mornings in the Metaverse," exploring what many in the tech world say is the next big thing. The metaverse enables users to immerse themselves in the internet — perhaps sitting in a virtual office before heading out to enjoy the virtual beach.
Facebook, Microsoft and so many others are investing billions in what may become a single 3D virtual world, or maybe several worlds, connected — or maybe not. No one is quite sure, except to say that you'll hopefully want to spend a lot of time and money there.
