My week with Google Glass

NEW Yorkers are pretty hard to impress. You could cartwheel through the A train wearing leathers and a pom pom and they wouldn’t break their stride. But get on the subway wearing Google Glass and suddenly they see you.

“Are you taking a picture with that thing?” demanded the woman opposite on the #4 train as the man beside her took a picture of me. “Er, no,” I replied glaring at her companion. He had the grace to look embarrassed. The rest of the carriage stared at me as if I was visiting from another galaxy.

Ah yes, welcome to the world of wearable computing. Brought to you by Google Glass.
