I also have never and will never have the need to update somebody when I stop for a coffee "just because". Imagine all the times you stop at Tim Hortons, or a quick place to eat, every day. Now imagine the people you have on Glasses sharing that information with you...all the time. That they "checked into Tims at 10:50" and "checked out at 10:53". IMO, it's an unnecessary overload of pointless information that prevents you from ever "unplugging".
The internet itself is an overload of information that our generation is struggling to handle.

Instant photo-capturing is perfect for me. I just always see so much uh...scenery in the average day that I'd like to take a picture of, but can't because I'd get arrested it takes too long to pull out my phone, load the camera app, get a good angle, then take the picture. I guess spy glasses or whatever already exist but I can't justify those while everyone would instantly flock to/accept a Google product.

You're still going to have to say "take picture" when you're staring at that girl's ass
