The reviews are rolling in. For the most part, they’re not good. Google may have laid a major egg with Google Glass by building a device that has such a limited set of realistic uses that one might be better off taping a GoPro camera to their cap and wearing a quality Bluetooth headset connected to their smartphone instead. If you’re wanting a 1st-person perspective video for a roller coaster ride, Google Glass may come in handy. Then again, a GoPro would work just fine for that. If you want to be connected to online communication services all the time, Google Glass has you covered. Of course, you’ll…

Google Glass is the new head-mounted computer being released by Google later this year. The device uses a clever prism design to project an unobtrusive, translucent image over your vision. Users control Glass with voice commands similar to Apple’s Siri. By uttering the words “ok, glass…” followed by a command, users can order Glass to record videos with the built in camera, search Google for information, check the local weather, and much more. All this information is delivered to you through the amazing prism in front of your eye or through the headphone in your ear. You don’t have…

With all the attention Google Glass is getting before it’s even launched, one would think it was an Apple product. It’s not, but it has the buzz level of the new Corvette Stingray. Now, it’s making news by doing something that other tech companies have avoided for a while. They’re going to have Foxconn build Glass in the United States. Foxconn is a Taiwan company that has been associated with Apple products as well as other tech giants. For Glass, they’ll be operating out of a plant in Santa Clara, California. This isn’t the first domestic move. Apple CEO Tim Cook announced that certain Macs were going…

It’s not a coincidence that Google is the target of numerous attacks from journalists, politicians, and even bar owners. The technology is a true game-changer. It has the potential to push us further into the world of wearable tech. Soon, we may all be accepting of our Borg overlords. One of the effects that this is going to have is one of polarization. People on both sides of the aisle will be voicing their opinions strongly one way or another. You can either love Google Glass or hate it – there’s not much room for anything in between. Even our own coverage of it has been pretty darn aggressive over the…

It’s a good thing that Google is building a driverless car because lawmakers are already sending shots across the bow to stop Google Glass from being used while driving. For a device that hasn’t even been released to the public yet, it’s certainly getting a lot of attention. The legislation, introduced in West Virginia by Republican Gary G. Howell, would add Google Glass to current laws regarding texting while driving. While some will argue that Google Glass will actually help prevent the more dangerous handheld device texting by allowing the driver to continue to look at the road and use voice…

New gadgets. We love them. They bring excitement donin the days leading up to their launch and they give us reasons to walk up to strangers and ask them questions in hopes that they’ll let us give them a try. The same will hold true for Google Glass when it’s released. People will love on it. Eventually, it will fail. The idea is a strong one. Wearable tech is all the rage right now and this is the closest one can get to having bionic, Terminator-style eyes. It will be reviewed and many bloggers will call it a life-changing, pseudo-religious experience, something that any geek with true nerd cred needs…

Cell phones. GoPro. Spy cams. There are already a ton of different ways for creeps and perverts to take pictures and shoot videos of unknowing subjects for whatever nefarious reasons they have. Google Glass – this could be the technology they’ve needed to take it to another level. Hands-free perverts (at least while they’re spying). That’s one of the fears of some. It was highlighted inadvertently during a publicity stunt from a local bar in Seattle who announced that they were banning Google Glass entirely from use. Their reason – they’re a seedy bar whose patrons value their privacy and anonymity….

The world of dating is going to get easier – and more complicated – thanks to Google glass. It’s already so easy to find out about various topics or to learn about a person in particular just by using our smartphones, but when Google Glass arrives, it will make it easier to go covert with the date-impressing research. Okay, so it won’t. So the video below is satirical and you can’t really get away with being on a date in the middle of a political discussion while watching football. It doesn’t matter. The funny nature of this video should be taken at face value but the real implications of what Google Glass,…

When Google first announced the Glass Project nearly a year ago, it looked like a nice enhancement to life that puts many of the powers of smartphones into the handsfree realm of wearable tech. Using voice commands and visual displays in the top right corner of view, the dream was to connect the world through the web in an intuitive interface that combined form and function beautifully. After watching the video below, Google Glass now appears to be the most dangerous new technology coming available. I’m only half kidding. This technology may be so cool, so useful, so distracting, that the funny…

Try as he may, Google’s co-founder has a difficult time trying to blend in with other folks who ride on New York City subways. His attire was inconspicuous. His hat, facial hair, and position as the least well-known of the Page-Schmidts-Brin Google trio would make it easy for him to walk the streets without being accosted by paparazzi. He forgot on thing – the mythical Google Glass specs that sat on his nose gave him away and made for a fun Tweet: Yeeeah… I just had a brief conversation with the most powerful man in the world. On the downtown 3 train. Nice guy. twitter.com/noazark/status… — Noah…
