Best Buy Might Sell Google Glass

Google Glass is voice-controlled, Internet-connected eyewear that allows users wear to take pictures, video conference, check email and perform a variety of other functions. Best Buy didn't deny that it plans to sell Google's much-anticipated computerized eyewear, Google Glass, after a famed tech blogger reported a rumored partnership earlier this week. But the big-box store also didn't confirm the rumors. Best Buy is considering devoting up to 6,000 square feet per store to display Google products, including Google Glass. This makes sense, since you really need to try Glass before buying it to see if it's for you and you also need to have it fitted to your face. I still have to wonder what type of problems this tech would be solving. It would be pretty cool and I think I would go try them out just to see if I really like them but right now, I feel like there is no pressing need for them. What are your thoughts on the Google Glass?

  1. This technology for phone services really seems to be a waste of money and time to me.

  2. I do not think that it would be productive to have internet phone services on glasses. It would just be distracting.

  3. I really do not want to see people driving with Glass and using internet phone services. It will be worse than texting and driving.

  4. The internet phone services and social media in the glasses might even be a bad idea in social situations.
