    Not interested. You can always tell when you are getting "older", some of the new gadgets have no appeal at all. These glasses fall into the category of "No Thanks".

    It's like a bluetooth for your eyes. I look forward to the day I see some d-bag wearing these, talking on the phone/texting, and driving at the same time.

    I try to be less connected. Once I retire I will be disconnected except for when I may want to converse here (if this place doesn't go dwonhill like the other place) and when I order stuff off of the internet and look up information.

    Its already starting. The water cooler is the safest place right now. I ventured into the bowhunting talk section the other day and didn't recognize anyone. As long as we stay down here, and stay quiet, we can hold on a little longer. No hotspotting. The basement is where the real party is at.

    At $630 bucks a share ( was offered to the public at $85 in 04 )Google hasn't made MANY mistakes. I'm sure it's been well thought out. I got a feeling we will see alot of them.

    If they work as well as they do in the video I would probably pick up a pair.

    LOL what?

    Google+

    Whatever that circle thing was last year or so?

    Google has made plenty of mistakes. They are just big enough to withstand their mistakes.
