Hello everyone, my name is Wills and I'm going to be your new tech guy bringing you all the latest news in information technology and the likes so stay tuned for more 😎
So it seems Facebook will be joining Amazon, Alphabet Inc(Google) and Apple in an increasingly crowded smart speaker market as soon as this summer. According to reports Facebook plans to launch its Aloha and Fiona smart speakers by July..pretty cool names, don't you think🤗.
Apple just recently launched its HopePod smart speaker earlier this month and was was heavily criticised for missing the critical holiday shopping season. Amazon’s Echo devices and Alphabet’s Google Home speakers were two of the hottest-selling holiday gift ideas this year.
I think that even though Facebook is late to the game on the smart speaker battle with Amazon and Alexa leading the pack, this is a crucial launch for Zuckerberg as he looks to get a piece of the pie. The smart speaker launch is a really good move for Facebook as it represents the next leg of monetizing its massive user base. I really hope they bring competition and innovation to the smart speaker society. I also hope i get one, maybe a generous steemian can be of help lol.
So that's it folks, please let me know your thoughts and opinions. Hope you enjoyed that as much as i did.
