The Google glasses seem really cool, but also a little scary. I think it was just a matter of time before this was all coming, I just think we did not expect it so soon. This could either revolutionize the world we live in again, just like when Apple did, or could make the world we live in a pretty scary place. Only time can tell.
ReplyDeleteThe google glasses seem unreal and if technology really does have the ability to perform each one of those functions then good for them, but I agree with Emily, the whole innovation is a bit scary. Yes, such an innovation can help individuals with a variety of things such as making videos, taking pictures, sharing that information, navigation, but is it really necessary? People will always have different opinions, but I personally think the new innovations are moving to fast.
