Facebook is reshuffling its names under a rebranded corporate parent: Meta. CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced the change Thursday, saying he wanted a new brand and a clearer corporate naming scheme to help focus on what's next for the internet beyond social media. The rebrand comes as Facebook faces a deluge of news stories and public scrutiny based on thousands of internal corporate documents obtained by news organizations, including NBC News. The documents, originating with former Facebook product manager and whistleblower Frances Haugen, reveal internal employee dissent over the platform's policies. The change won't affect the name of the company's signature blue-colored app, which will keep the name Facebook. But it will mean a new identity for the corporate umbrella that also owns Instagram and WhatsApp. Together with the app Messenger, Meta will own and control four of the most popular smartphone apps in the world. The name is a nod to the idea of the "metaverse," a term for a potential future internet that emphasizes virtual spaces. Zuckerberg said the metaverse will be the internet's "next frontier." Mark Zuckerberg said Facebook and its various apps would now fall under a new company name, Meta.Facebook"Facebook is one of the most-used products…

Athletics Athletics The Athletics' offseason is off to a bad start before it could even begin.  Shocking news broke Thursday when longtime A's manager Bob Melvin left Oakland to take over as the manager of the San Diego Padres, sources confirmed to NBC Sports California's Brodie Brazil. Melvin agreed to a three-year contract with the Padres, MLB.com AJ Cassavell reported, citing sources. Manager of the A's for 11 seasons, Melvin's departure surprised everybody.  Just four months ago, the A's exercised Melvin's club option for the 2022 MLB season. Not to further rub salt into the wounds of A's fans, but that aged VERY poorly.  Infielder Tony Kemp was the first current A's player to react to the news that Melvin was leaving Oakland. So basically this is not a trade and thus no compensation is going to the A’s with Bob Melvin joining the Padres. Needless to say, this is a wonderful move for a Padres team in desperate need of the right voice.— Alden González (@Alden_Gonzalez) October 29, 2021 Can't imagine the Padres doing any better than this in their search, and that roster is still loaded. NL West isn't getting any easier next year https://t.co/mM9crmwYq4— Alex Pavlovic (@PavlovicNBCS) October 29, 2021 Man, I'm heartbroken on two fronts and happy…

When the pandemic drove mass adoption of video call app Zoom, the shares of totally unrelated Zoom Technologies went up in 2019. A similar thing happened to Signal Advance when the privacy concerns surrounding WhatsApp drove people to use Signal, a safer application. ReutersFacebook is now MetaFacebook's new official corporate name will be Meta Platforms starting December 1, 2021. Its stock name will be "MVRS." According to the website of Meta Materials, its a company focused on materials that block out a "specific colour of light" or to heat a "window in a car."Meta Materials' stock name is MMAT, whose shares jumped by at least 25 per cent in the aftermath of Zuckerberg's announcement.

Back in September, Twitter announced that it was planning to add recording and playback features for Spaces so that listeners can access shows after they air. Now, the website has rolled out the ability to a limited number of Spaces hosts on iOS and to all listeners on iOS and Android. Twitter says it's a way for hosts to extend the value of their work and to reach audiences who couldn't always keep an eye out for live conversations.  Hosts who already have access to Spaces Recording will have to toggle on "Record Space" before launching a new conversation to switch on the feature. A recording icon will be visible to everyone, including listeners, during the show. Hosts will have access to the recording for 30 days after initial broadcast, and they'll be able to share and tweet it for their followers to see. Listeners will be able to play back recordings right on their timeline — they'll also be able to share them, which could translate to more listeners and fans for hosts.  While the recording will be available for a month, hosts can delete it anytime. Twitter says it will still keep a file for up to 120…
