Google glass!

[sven]

Behold the unwailment...

GOOGLE glass has been unleached unto the world!!!

It is not "glasses". It is glass. Because there is only one glass.

One glass to fit your eye. One glass to find your eye, and in the GOOGLE bind them.

It must be taken deep into Mordor and cast into the fiery chasm from whence it came. One of you must do this.

I sense a great disturbance in the force, as if a million souls all pointed and laughed all at once.

I thought 'it' would make me a babe-magnetosaurus... But 'it' makes people point me out to their friends, so that they may join them in mocking me!

Such is the fate of the glasshole.

But the bearers of the glass (note carefully my use of SINGULAR here) must perhaps bear their burden, until it becomes socially acceptable to wear A FUCKING CAMERA ON YOUR HEAD!!!

Hm. I just thought of a use for that.

Rectal exams?

No. Something else, my friend.... Something.... else.

The sad thing is it could be so much more than a camera strapped to your head. Imagine walking into a museum and being given a pair. Wherever you go you get as much information as you want on any given exhibit - including VR videos of how it used to look. As the set incorporates GPS you could even walk around an exhibit and see how it was from all angles.

I've done some work at the Acropolis museum where they are doing similar things on tablets for school tours. The kids hold the tablets up to see statues as they were back when they were made. With Glass - no tablet. It just could be so brilliant its heart-braking.

Yeah. 'Accentuated reality' or whatever they call it.
Have you read the novel 'timequake' by Kurt Vonnegut?
Imagine a film that is made up of your entire life. Would you want to watch that?
