Oculus Rift the latest growing technology

Oculus Rift

This device combines HD lenses with head tracking technology to provide an immense VR experience, the inventor Luckey says it's a way to meet people and chat that's more tangible than any other technology

My take on this is why not just walk out your door and meet people in real life? Isnt that better than replacing it with technology? There are other better things that needs to be solved on planet earth and adding one more virtual product to the market is detrimental in my opinion.
