Imagine driving to work, wearing your Google Glass(es) and its HUD (heads up display) is guiding you around traffic in real time. You arrive at work and see a guy wearing some sweet shoes; you scan them with your Glass and pin it for the future and all your friends to see. You work with a number of foreigners who are in town to assist with some system failures; they don't speak English -- Google Glass is translating their speech in front of your eyes. That's the future with Google Glass.

Google co-founder Sergey Brin and his fellow Googlers helped debut the company's crazy Google Glass project with an employee doing a real-time parachute jump while wearing the connected smart glasses.

It's better Google cranks these out and gets a patent on them first than Apple. We can expect some reasonable prices then... hopefully.

Really?!? Fef, you're one of the most up-to-date tech folk I'm aware of. Each piece of electronic communications has already been established to be being used by "agencies" of the Federal Gov't as being monitored, and that info is used against the individual in actions at-law.

Modern cellphones already eliminate privacy, you go out in public, you probably have your picture taken 50 times in an hour without knowing
