In the past year, we've learned what meeting means and embraced new forms of communication through services like Zoom. But video calls do not have the presence of in-person meetings. Facebook's new virtual reality Horizontal Workplaces almost solves this problem. But (almost) no one will use it. When Facebook announced its new virtual reality (VR) meeting app, Horizon Workrooms, I immediately had to try it out. I'm bull on VR and believe it's here to stay and will only get better. But if we're being honest, the primary use case for VR right now is gaming, not productivity. And Facebook is trying to change that. As the name suggests, Horizon Workrooms promises to create a virtual meeting room where people can gather in a VR conference room and have a group meeting. It has note-taking capabilities.

VR conference room with computer screen At Review Geek, we've always worked remotely, so holding meetings via Google Meet is already old hat. But I tried Horizon Workrooms anyway. I wasn't too worried even though I was the only one wearing a VR headset thanks to this video calling feature, but things got off to a rocky start. You must register for workshops on the Oculus website . Despite having an Oculus account linked to my Facebook account, I had to create a new account for Workrooms. Then create a custom meeting room (although you can join one of these). After that, I installed the app on my Oculus Quest 2 (sorry, OG Quest owners, you're not invited) and then updated the app.
Then, I had to connect the Quest to my desktop, which required looking at my browser on my desktop, memorizing a few numbers and letters, and then jumping into VR to type them. Finally, I had to update my PC's Oculus software and install a remote desktop app to connect my PC to my search. VR deer head on wall with VR headset I bet that deer head is goofing off and playing 'Beat Saber.' But when you go through all that, everything else is a breeze. You can add notes, files and links from the web page and they will automatically appear in the VR meeting room. Everything you put on the table is a button to press in the VR app. And for anyone who doesn't want to be in VR, you can just send a link to join. And this is what Horizon Workroom does amazingly well. Inside, I could actually see my computer, meaning I could still do my work. And thanks to the Oculus Quest's pass-through capabilities, I could even see my actual keyboard and hands. If you have the right keyboard, Office can accommodate this without switching, bu
