The Glass Pass is here. Your videos, your Glass Pass.
The goal of Glass has always been to let creators own their videos. Truly own your videos.
The Glass Pass is your identity on Glass. Your own individual .glass username on Ethereum.
The Glass Pass is your key to creating videos with Glass.**** When the new Creator Studio and Glass Protocol launches in a few weeks, it will only be accessible to creators who own a Glass Pass. All the videos you create with Glass will be linked to your Glass Pass on-chain.
The Glass Pass lets you invite other people to the protocol.**** The Genesis claimers will get the Special Edition BLAZE Glass Pass. These Genesis Glass Pass holders will be able to invite other people to claim Curated BLACK Glass Passes via special links.
The Glass Pass (.glass) is designed to complement other decentralized identity networks, like your .eth and .lens. We believe people will have different types of on-chain identities that serve different purposes and represent different networks.

- The Facebook phone story from a decade ago was always weird. It was multi sourced. Years afterward a FB exec complained to me that the story killed the project and he was leading it. And now 1/2
2/ and now this old email leaks where Zuck apparently told FB employees back then that 1) the story wasn't true AND 2) whoever leaked it should resign. Kind of a mixed message :-)
[Mark Zuckerberg demanded Facebook employee ‘please resign’ over media leak](https://nypost.com/2023/03/21/mark-zuckerberg-asked-facebook-employee-to-please-resign/)
The 2010 email from Zuckerberg to Facebook staff was posted by the Twitter account known as “Internal Tech Emails,” where it went viral on Tuesday.

Today I have made an important decision in my life 📢
I quit my job today and going to focus full-time on maintaining the first-ever open-source frontend @lenster.lens 🌸 powered by @lensprotocol 🌿.
Building social media was my dream since 10th grade, I built more than 4 social media in public but all failed, Lenster is my 5th one and it’s going crazy ⚡️.
I believe building in public is key 🔑 to the success of a product.
We have a lot of items queued up in the roadmap, be excited about it 🕺
**Collect this post for 2 WMATIC and support Lenster’s development 🙏**
