Yeah but I still can't imagine why I'd want to know the Twitter bio of the people around me.
It's a bus/train/supermarket/DMV line, not a mixer. If it were a mixer I'd also be more interested in talking to the person than reading their profile and recent tweets.
I get how such technology would be impressive from a "oooooh cyberspace!" perspective, but that only reinforce's the point made earlier: Google Glass was very impressive tech that had a lot of technically interesting applications that were nonetheless mostly pointless.
