Now you see it….

If you’ve got an Oculus account and wear a set of those snazzy VR goggles every now and then, Meta says you’ve got until the end of the month to switch over to a Meta account. The company says it will delete its Oculus accounts on March 29, preventing you from reactivating or retrieving your apps, in-app purchases, store credits, and more. You’ll lose your achievements, friends list, and any content created if you don’t migrate to a Meta account before then. And as tech is changing so fast these days, you might want to do a stocktake on what you do and don’t use, including what aids you in your job and what doesn’t. If you need some tips on where and how to start, The Property Collective’s Hannah Gill shares her tips here.
