Google is now addressing the
"Do's" and
"Don't's" concerns with the new tech
Glass gadget. Google
Glass is a optical digital headset that is used that has improved functions as a mobile phone but more invisible and worn as hince the name
"Glasses." CNN's Doug Gross disclosed the pre scoped i-Spy wear device was recently released by the mega internet corps tested by Explorers to be walking ads for the product. The headset was at a retail price for $1500 USD, but now may be traded between inflation prices of $300 - $600. The device was also featured at the
Mobile World Congress in the world's largest mobile trade show in Barcelona, Spain.
Glass etiquette. One common courtesy practice is being rude to stare at other's while having them on, or into space while to other's you look like a loon, and to not take unauthorized photos or videos without the person's permission. Stranger's have even approached device testers, because of the lack of privacy of taking photos or videos. Glass is completely banned from restaurants.Google developed a derogatory term
"Glasshole" to describe those who misbehave with the new titanium frames. The same rules apply to Glass as it does to a cellphones. Turning the device off when asked is best then to ignore the request by businesses. You still have to use the screen like to keep information in tact just as on a cell phone. Google also advises if sitting in a public place with Glass gets to weird then put them away in your glass case or in your bag when your out and about. Just be sure to not have it in arms reach of others. It would be nice if they could implement a security lock that truly recognizes your fingerprints or remote control.
