Google's Project Glass Eyewear has been the topic of this month. I've seen this new invention everywhere, on the news, on blogs, on articles, etc. Google glasses are the next thing for us in the future, imagine all the capabilities you would have in an iPhone but on your glasses. Its hands free and it reacts/ follows your every command from your voice. This seems very interesting at first, but it leaves me with the curiosity. I would try them on but just for a bit. I wouldn't use these glasses on a daily basis though; even though this is the next BIG thing in technology I wouldn't use it daily. In my perspective, this is allowing the device to remember and do everything for you. As humans, we are slowly losing the capability to remember or do things for ourselves since we're growing up in a type of environment where everything is handed to us. Also, this would hurt my eyes and I would get frustrated using it constantly.
My overall opinion about this isn't very accepting. This is all just going by way too fast. This is sort of an escape of reality, you're constantly being on this thing all day and you can't just put it down. This to me resembles how texting is, facebook, and any other "addicting" websites; its just a huge distraction and its in your face. This is just bad for our society, I believe it will make people's eyesight worse and it would be distracting. This is a great advance for technology but aren't we going too fast? Google's glasses are very neat and its a genius idea, but I wouldn't accept them or use them.
