I Wish I Was Wearing Google Glass Today

Published under Mango Paper, Jul 4, 2014

I tried Google Glass before, but couldn’t think of a good use case for me to actually buy one.

I thought maybe I would wait until I have kids, since I have heard a lot of times that people enjoy having a Glass while spending time with their kids.

But today, for the first time ever, I wish I had a Google Glass, so badly.

I was cycling in the bay area, mostly along the Bay Trail today. It is an absolutely beautiful ride.

During the ride, I stopped several times, to take pictures, either with my phone or my SLR (for different kind of pictures). That is the great part.

The bad part is, there were many many more times that I wish I could also take pictures, especially take pictures of what I see. Or sometimes better, videos of what I see.

Then I said, “Wish I had a Google Glass.”

I admit I won’t buy it yet, because the value and price ratio is still too low for me. But, I’m looking forward to finding more ways to increase the former. Otherwise I will just get a GoPro.
