I see this as the start to pass along all our info to a something else when we see fit. Phone in pocket,
I need info while my hands are occupied > display it in glasses
Driving > display it in the car glass
Walk to the fridge, display info on its display
etc, etc...The glasses are only a surface to display info on. I see the next step to change the way we look at a device, you carry it, but you don't need to look at it, you can display info from it on other formats more appropriate to the situation.

Heh, just read a Giz article on how they have a display on a contact lens. Google glasses will be obsolete once these are out. Mission Impossible-style yo!

Sure, it's ugly now but in 10 years this technology will be in available in contact lenses or the bridge of designer frames. Hands free video chat and HUD will be useful enough that people will adopt it. Not everyone, but enough to keep the technology moving forward.

KimberyDeiss has received many threats and has recently turned off her website and email in fear that someone will find her and anonymously stab her since this CNN article.

I'm working on CallesMaker, but for iOS.

I'm sure the technology is impressive but I'll be damned if I'm going to walk around with bulky specs that allow me to read yelp reviews.

Father of a kid in my daughter's soccer class is the head of a team ESPN hired to specifically design UI and content for this stupid thing. ESPN is investing millions - thinking it's going to be a giant sports thing.
I keep picturing a guy with one of those beer helmets on, his google glasses while updating his fantasy football team while watching the World series. Oh yeah, it'll happen.
- forget about sports, when is Brazzers getting a demo?_niko

^ Shit, I was just about to say they're the Segway (remember when it was called "Ginger" and "It"? ooooh, mystery!) of the 2010s.
There will be pockets of adoption, but that's it.

If that shit is not too expensive, I will be all over it like all your mommas pretty much are with me all night (but one at a time I'm 35 and they refuse to all come to the same place to meet me and it takes me ages to get across town to each one, the glasses will defo. help me plan my route and message people while pumping all your mommas :D...)

A lot of noise being made about this now.

Hard to shake the feeling these are just sleeker GoPro cameras with an internet connection. But definitely have potential to get very Minority Report within the next decade.

It will be huge. People laughed at the iPad when it was unveiled.

I'm too cynical to think the benefits of this would outweigh the annoying advertising applications.
