Everyone keeps saying that it will be weird for people to wear such glasses. I don't think that wearing them is what's weird, I think talking to them is the weird stuff.

I mean phones have been around for ages and some people still don't feel confortable talking in them in public spaces.

Siri is another example, have you ever meet someone talking to Siri on the bus ? on the metro ? on the street ? Not me.

Do you imagine people yelling in the train "Ok glass, show me the weather" ?




I really think the wearable glasses format is doomed. Its just clunky and lacks style.

I was just watching a video of Sony's newest smartwatch and how it integrated with Android. I could see myself wearing that. Glass? Probably not. I'm not even someone who is into fashion. I just want crap on my face and, my god, it looks super dorky.
