Skylanders is now popular enough that they can sell this for $20. Three people bought these in the 20 minutes I was in the store.

On second thought, maybe I shouldn't have given +Chris Sewell an unfettered ability to push things to my Glass...

Phase One is complete! On to Phase Two with +Chris Sewell doing all the actual work!

Was going to play Cards Against Humanity, but now I think I'm going to just sit and talk and relax. Today was a little more stressful than I had originally thought.

After another 20 minutes of minor tweaks and adjustments, I think I've finally got it on and comfortable. I had issues with the initial fitting after walking from the Glass room to Penn Station. Much like normal glasses, glass slides around a bit when you move. this becomes a little tricky when the real estate on your nose is already partially used.

I'm going to have a lot to say about wearing Glass with glasses, and whether or not this is better or worse than an integrated solution.

Two hours in. Things are very new and not entirely what I expected, but so damn cool.

It is such an amazing evening. Perfect for a bike ride and a late dinner on the patio of my favorite Irish restaurant, as a treat for this exhausting week.

Also, no kids for the weekend so Cards Against Humanity with +Kevin Myers and +Tara Myers when I get back from my Glass fitting tomorrow. Not a bad weekend. Not at all.

That's right, blame the fans. Totally their fault. 

Hopefully this means we'll hear more about the other pilots soon. Really have my fingers crossed for Betas.

While this certainly requires a little more research and experimentation, the results are a little disconcerting.

This is the single greatest Lego contraption I have ever seen. Just incredibly complex and fluid. Thoroughly entertaining to watch.

This is a really interesting look into just how exceptionally difficult debugging can be and precisely why the idea that Programmers should be responsible for bugs the same way Civil Engineers are for a mistake is truly terrifying. The complexity of the systems involved are enormous (frankly nearly incomprehensible) and, in many instances, you don't have nearly as much accessibility into your underlying tools and libraries as these guys did.

With Glass, everything is fair game, apparently.

We didn't get to turn it on or, you know, USE it... but we'll be able to share our impression of it soon.

This just showed up as part of the new All Access Google Music. I had no idea such a beast existed. I am both confused and intrigued.

As they say - "it's that simple"

At least, for the explorer edition. It's sounding like the final edition might not be so friendly. More on this later.

I think +Sal Cangeloso looks pretty cunning in his #notglass  

Jokes aside, it is really interesting to see the differences between an augmented reality focused concept and an always on concept like Glass. There's some truly exciting things headed for us in this arena.

Oh man... Google+'s new Auto Awesome feature combined with the way G+ treats Zoes on Instant Uploads means we now get auto GIFs of what we create from Zoes. 

So now a single Zoe is 20 photos, a 3 second video, and an Auto Awesome GIF for Google+. 

Just... wow.

Hey EA, if you're looking for other things to kill off because of negative feedback... I've got some friends who would like to talk to you about Origin.
