I visited a stunning Tuscan estate today occupied by a brick building that looked like it had been there for centuries. I climbed through one of its many windows and stood near a running fountain. There wasn't a cloud in the sky, and I was delighted to hear birds chirping as they flew by me. This all happened as I sat at a desk in my office in New York City, while I played with the Oculus Rift virtual reality headset. Its parent company, Oculus VR, was just acquired by Facebook for $2 billion. The headset displays a fully immersive 3D experience that makes you feel like you are actually in the game.
