But how is Google Glass a step backwards? Seems like you don't lose all of your focus when you're using it, it's a small square always visible, not something you have to turn to and give it complete focus. Seems like a step forward to me.

Maybe. I've been using a Tom-Tom lately and what I've notice is that it sort of turns you into a mindless drone. At least that is how I felt. I can certainly see a thing like Google Glass adversely affecting people by making them too dependent on it. How exactly? I'm not sure.
