Thanks. The "He's a square" metaphor is intentional. As the initiative is called 'Squared', students are referred to as 'Squares' - it's a playful pun and isn't derogatory, but I completely understand your point.
Thanks Jay, much appreciated.
Thanks, Jeroen. You're correct, it doesn't strictly follow the Google brand guidelines. Like the current identity, I wanted the brand to have hints of Google's branding, while remaining fairly independent.

That would be great. Thanks, James.

That's actually what inspired that particular use case. I would love to be able to travel to a foreign country and be able to understand every piece of text I looked at. I think it could also be useful for learning a language.
Re:Ok, glass – new Google Glass concepts on Monday May 13, 2013 @03:14PM (#5700769)
Thanks. As a daily user of the tube, I would love to hear what your colleagues think.

Thanks, I'm glad you like it.

Awesome, glad to see there are already people bringing it to life.
Re:Ok, glass – new Google Glass concepts on Monday May 13, 2013 @03:10PM (#5700742)
I would buy the hell out of that. I might add a new concept to the project that whispers 'Anchorman' quotes in my ear in completely inappropriate situations.
