Google Glasses Announced

Posted by samzenpus on from the let-google-do-the-looking dept.

Eponymous Hero writes "The Geordi La Forge in all of us rejoices as Google announces Google Glasses, the augmented reality glasses that will no doubt spy on everything you look at and target you with ads at that crucial moment. The only question left begging is how soon can we merge them with bionic eye implants?"

    The googles! They do nothing!

    It must include how much ammo I have left, my health and armor. Extra points if it has an image of my head as I take damage.

    I love how the pitch boils down to "Google goggles: they'll help you get laid". (Ukulele not included)

    Yes! Then you can play racing games while driving to work! Using Google Maps layers for tracks! Better yet, you can race against your coworkers to see who will get to work first. Productivity will soar!

    ...they'd damned well make sure it only listens to me. (Or else I *will* troll everyone wearing one of these.)

    "Browse goatse" will be the new battle cry.
