Google Glass page.

I agree with Mason and Michaela that this page is straight from Google. This website is helpful because it shows us how even in just a year, Google Glass could be everywhere. This information can be helpful in predictions for 2100. We could predict that in 2100 everyone would have Google Glass and other technological devices of that sort. Google Glass could make life so much better for everyone. If we were going to make a prediction with Google Glass' place in the future, we would need to mention that it could be distracting and could enable students to cheat at school. Overall, this is a reliable resource.

i don't believe this will work in the long run "The Google driverless car is a project by Google that involves developing technology for autonomous cars. The software powering Google's cars is called Google Chauffeur.[2] Lettering on the side of each car identifies it as a "self-driving car." The project is currently being led by Google engineer Sebastian Thrun, director of the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory and co-inventor of Google Street View. Thrun's team at Stanford created the robotic vehicle Stanley which won the 2005 DARPA Grand Challenge and its US$2 million prize from the United States Department of Defense.[3] The team developing the system consisted of 15 engineers working for Google, including Chris Urmson, Mike Montemerlo, and Anthony Levandowski who had worked on the DARPA Grand and Urban Challenges.[4]"

"Google Glass is a wearable computer with an optical head-mounted display (OHMD) that is being developed by Google in the Project Glass research and development project,[8] with a mission of producing a mass-market ubiquitous computer.[1] Google Glass displays information in a smartphone-like hands-free format,[9] that can communicate with the Internet via natural language voice commands.[10][11]"

I own a pair of Google Glass and see the potential to radically shift many things in our lives, but the tech is not quite there yet. I find it fascinating that the book predicted wearable tech in 2010 and in 2014 I am part of the movement. Really good eye opener to me with no pun intended.
