News briefs for April 27, 2018.
Mozilla announced yesterday a preview release of Hubs, a "new way to get together online within Mixed Reality, right in your browser." This preview lets you easily create a "room" online with a click, and you then can meet with others by sharing the link. When they open the link, they enter your room as avatars. Mozilla notes that this is "All with no app downloads, walled gardens, or content gatekeepers, and on any device you wish—and most importantly, through open source software that respects your privacy and is built on web standards."
