Google Glass on left, what Google Glass sees on right.<\/p><\/div>\n

see you see me and then some<\/h4>\n

My introduction to Google Glass<\/a> came at Tampa’s 2013 Barcamp<\/a> at the University of South Florida last September<\/a>. I sat in on a presentation by Glass Explorer Bruce Burke<\/a>, one of those 8,000 or so chosen to live with the devices on a daily basis, and watched as he recovered from a failed classroom projector by tethering his Glass to his tablet so we could see what he saw.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you just want to make some phone calls, send and receive some text messages, take some pictures, take some videos and get directions, it\u2019s great.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In the months since Google first announced their revolutionary technology, I’ve been part of the crowd that thought it was cute but lacked real application. No more. The question isn’t what’s it good for, it’s what can’t it do. Can you call up the next Mickey D’s while you’re motoring along? Yep.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s real light information,\u201d Burke said. \u201cIf you just want to make some phone calls, send and receive some text messages, take some pictures, take some videos and get directions, it\u2019s great. If you\u2019re looking to create documents, create films and do heavier-weight stuff, it\u2019s not for that.\u201d<\/p>\n

google launches massive product release<\/h4>\n

This past week, Google Glass has unleashed a well primed info pump touting\u00a0style choices for Glass frames<\/a>, a precursor to the retail launch that’s rumored to take place this Fall.<\/p>\n

Not all the talk was effusive. FastCo Design called timeout on the use of “iconic”<\/a> in the same breath as what seem to be otherwise ordinary frame choices. Still, the frames came across even if the writing lesson came up short.<\/p>\n

Stand by. App development is well under way for the first purchasers wanting to adapt Glass to their particular niche. Surgeons? Sure. Fire and police? Of course. Also hobbyists, as in woodworkers. Service techs of all stripes. Brokers, reporters, and factory workers will also be seen sitting at their desks or at their stations, swiping at their temples and talking to themselves.<\/p>\n

It’s not if any longer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
