A video published yesterday by Inspired by Iceland, a marketing campaign for Icelandic tourism, takes aim at a Mark Zuckerberg video released in October announcing Facebook's name change to Meta. In it, Zuckerberg hypes the so-called "metaverse," a virtual world that "will be the successor to the mobile internet."
If the goal was to get people talking about Iceland, a new tourism video is more than succeeding.
The metaverse's defining quality, said Zuckerberg, is "the feeling of presence … like you're there with other people."
The video extolls Iceland's "completely immersive" experiences, such as its real rocks, real humans and "skies you can see with your eyeballs."
Reactions to the video were overwhelmingly positive, with people praising the "Olympic-level trolling" by Iceland officials, and many expressing a desire to visit.
Mooers, would you like to visit Iceland after watching this video?

Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt sounded skeptical on Tuesday that Meta, formerly known as Facebook, will succeed at building the metaverse.
Schmidt reacted to the news that $Meta Platforms (FB.US)$ would shift its focus to build the metaverse, a virtual world where you can socialize, work and play.
Schmidt is not the only one who remains skeptical about Facebook. A former Facebook executive also said wouldn't trust Zuckerberg in metaverse.

There's no state between ice and water, everything changed once the temperature reaches the freezing point. However, there is a state between dreaming and sober. We usually call it "investing".
Investing is a very subtle state, people get dizzy while playing big in the money game. We sometimes find it hard to tell whether a person is "high" or has just been through a great loss/ gain in the market. If there's an investor is in the "middle state", we better stay away and observe, wait to see what interesting things are going to happen.
