I posted a similar thought to Linkedin awhile back. It would be great if we flipped the model to something that protects the user, first: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/20140609151247-16668613-apps-...

same. pbs has an actual explanation about 7 links down.

I agree. I always say 'work to live, don't live to work', which is my way of saying the same thing.

I liked this as well: 'I had been dreaming all my life, but I felt like I was finally free to dream'. This is where I am at in life right now, and it is beautiful.

ah but i have. and these are web apps. deploying them on the chrome web store is a cinch.

How sure are you that Dropbox is more reliable than Google Drive? As sure as you are that Google Drive is just a drop in the bucket for Google?

i use a chromebook. problem solved.

it is proper to remove them or place them atop your head like you do with sunglasses indoors. also, i doubt people were doing anything but staring down or straight ahead in the urinals. it would be weird for someone without glass to be doing what he describes in a bathroom. just saying..

can you characterize what makes their support "the absolute worst support of any business application/suite I've ever used" with examples?

that is not the general consensus of google apps customers, so i am curious what experiences have caused you to have this opinion.

Yup - Google hardens consumer for the enterprise.

it's way easier to just look up and talk than to pull a device out of your pocket, unlock it, pull down notifications/open an app, then interact with the device. it will save you minutes everyday with that process alone.

yes, android requires user permission to access any data on your phone.

your mobile phone has the exact same capabilities as glass. it just isn't mounted on your face.

the camera is a killer feature for glass. it wouldn't make sense without it. and having used it myself and taken photos, i can tell you i prefer the experience "hands down" over a mobile device or point-and-shoot for activities such as hiking, running, and biking.

yea..there is no green light. i have glass.

i picked up glass yesterday at google's campus. they are freaking sweet! not worth $100k though. $1500 was plenty :)

you can get location information and interact with any media (text, photo, video) along with contacts via the api.

yes! picking mine up in mtv tomorrow. only i/o 2012 glass explorers are getting the formal invites right now. #ifihadglass folks will need to wait a bit longer.

who is john galt?

our version of universal healthcare isn't that impressive..

that ain't right. let's ask for our money back..

Vdio is web-based. iTunes is app-based.

they seem to be competing with itunes and not netflix.

The reason I like this is because it is browser-based (vs itunes must be used as an app). At the very least, if you are a Rdio subsciber, you get $25 free credit for Vdio.

14 years since my surgery. i still see great! my pupils dilate 1mm further than the surgery corrects, resulting in a star-burst effect with any light at night. a minor nuance for near perfect vision. i'd do it again without hesitation.

i only see the option to add family members.

perhaps some kind of spray-on film that peels off easy when finished but won't break and is hella flexible.

irrelevant. google provides ways to move your data - google.com/takeout/

i also think this line of thinking is silly. the Googler is assuming a set of features is what made Google Reader the best RSS reader on the market. while that is true in essence (features do add up to the overall product) i don't think any 1 feature in reader was killer. rather, the collection of all the features made the app itself killer.
