I never saw anyone on the street with Spectacles and that signals to me it is a failure. I find this rule works for portable consumer electronics.

The biggest sign of failure to me was watching my girlfriends younger siblings switch from Snapchat to Instagram stories. They're getting eaten.

One place that heuristic fails is for kids technology. Parents will buy almost anything that they think either benefits their kid or makes parenting easier.

I did. I saw them in a lot of places. I live near SNAP (I've seen a matte black Mazaratti in my neighborhood with the licenseplate SNPCHT, or something like that) so maybe that's why. But I only ever saw them at techie events like GDC and around Santa Monica where all the tech companies are.
