I don’t see a reason for me to wear Google glass. I don’t need a digital overlay of the natural world to understand what I’m looking at, I don’t need to read emails or news when I’m walking somewhere or going for a run, I don’t need to record and share every minute of my life, and I certainly don’t need a foreign object on my face.
