Cat Power is good.  I'm a guy and not afraid to say that. 

good blog.  I don't know how I feel about google glass.  I am intrigured by the i-watch idea though. 

Mostly I just want oculus rift so I can totally zone out on video games. 

First time I saw Cat Power was on Austin City Limits,where she did most of the songs off that album. That band she had there was cool. I will probably get Oculus Rift if the games are good. That will be what either makes or breaks it.

Yeah, that's my main worry too. People already do enough stupid shit with phones, and you at least have to carry them around and use the touch screens to work them. The last thing we need is the process being streamlined even further--it's obnoxious enough as it is.

People lack the ability to focus on images in one eye and also see everything ahead of them. I don't care what the folks at Google say.

Yeah, they did an SNL sketch on Weekend Update recently where Fred Amisen(d?) was looking at porn while talking to Seth Meyers. Personally, I think voice commands in general just make you look like a doofus in public, unless you're the captain of a spaceship ... which at the current time, you definitely are not, so you just look like a doofus in public.

Granted, I don't have your sense of direction, so for that it might not be too bad in my case. lol

Awesome! I have to go watch that SNL sketch.

That was a funny sketch! I love Fred Armisen,he's great on SNL and Portlandia. I have always been better with maps,because I like holding something physical that I can get a broader scope with. In my line of work you have to know directions and short cuts between facilities. Saves a lot of time.

I don't even know what this is lol. Glasses that allow you to use Google or something? That seems like it would be really distracting. I get pissed off when people talk on the phone or text while driving.

It uses augemented reality tech which overlays online images over top whatever you are looking at in the real world.

You seem to have a handle on this thing. I have not experimented with any augmented reality games yet,but there are a bunch out there. The fighting game I saw on a blog the other day looked sort of cool.

I have those AR card for the 3DS but I haven't used them yet. What's my problem?

Ever ask that question of someone, "Are you talking to me?" and notice they are on the phone? Now you can ask, "Are you looking at me?" and notice they are staring at something on their Google Glasses. The disconnect in meat space grows daily!

This will really piss you off,then! As I know,this allows you to look at stuff in your right eye as it is projected onto the glass in front of that eyeball. Don't know how clear it might be as I have not tried one out.

I would be great for tourists as extra information about a location would be on that screen as you are looking at things. Museums too. I question how distracting it might be while driving though.

Good points.  I perceive Google Glass as an inevitable evolution in tech progression.  If we can think it, surely someone will try to create it.  I don't see it being practical, though.  I don't expect mainstream market penetration, but maybe the armed forces will find it valuable.  And yes, the SNL skit was great.

I'm sure the military is working on a way to kill people using this technology. Seems to be the first thing they do with any new tech. But killing is their business.....and business is good! As the Megadeth song said years ago.

It's a interesting way to integrate the internet into everyday life. We're not going to know what is real or online soon.

I was going to call star trek but you beat me to it! still nothing is as crazy as what the japanese have in store:

Apple are soooooooooo last year!

oh you know you'll be sporting these when they go mainstream

this whole thing kinda reminds me of the whole futurama episode with their "eyephone" where it showed people doing crazy things with it.
