In google now, you can use "OK glass" instead of "OK google".--[[User:Mralext20|Mralext20]] ([[User talk:Mralext20|talk]]) 05:23, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

: I have a problem with the sentence "It's likely that Cueball uses this app because he holds a smartphone in his hand" independent on whether this app exists or not -- simply by the fact that the title is "Glass Trolling" -- there would not be much "Trolling" involved if the "Ok, Glass" actually made sense in the context -- so my take is that Randal is NOT aware of the App referenced, and that the "Ok, Glass" is in context where no meaning of "OK, Glass" makes any sense, such as when using an old fashioned "feature phone" or a iphone, windows phone or simply just an Android phone which no "Ok, Glass" capabilities -- I vote to strike this part of the explanation [[User:Spongebog|Spongebog]] ([[User talk:Spongebog|talk]]
 
:: i was merly starting a fact. I shall edit the explanation to match your text.--[[User:Mralext20|Mralext20]] ([[User talk:Mralext20|talk]]) 05:00, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
 
  
 
There are actually privacy activists who call for grabbing such gadgets and destroying them by stomping on them. Google for "#camover" in combination with "google glass" to find hints. --[[User:Kigana|Kigana]] ([[User talk:Kigana|talk]]) 08:58, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

I don't know, aren't dioptric glasses correcting more complicated problems like astigmatism also costly? -- [[User:Hkmaly|Hkmaly]] ([[User talk:Hkmaly|talk]]) 09:55, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

: Speaking in gross costs, yes.  My new glasses cost well over $400 USD.  Thankfully, due to decent vision insurance, I only paid $53 for exam ($10), frame/lenses ($20) and the upcharge (discounted) for polycarbonate lenses.  Context: I have heavy astigmatism (especially my left eye) plus farsightedness. --BigMal // [[Special:Contributions/108.162.216.57|108.162.216.57]] 13:37, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

: Will people who need to wear glasses be able to wear Google Glass? Or would that be a problem? [[User:PheagleAdler|PheagleAdler]] ([[User talk:PheagleAdler|talk]]) 06:55, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
 
::no,the glass unit of now has support for lenses. --[[User:Mralext20|Mralext20]] ([[User talk:Mralext20|talk]]) 07:50, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
 
  
 
Made a major edit to the article, it is now much clearer and more informative IMHO. Feel free to tweak. --[[Special:Contributions/141.101.98.135|141.101.98.135]] 20:31, 16 December 2013 (UTC) (actually [[User:NeatNit]], cba to log in)

Using : OK, glass! on a smartphone medically is a symptom of "ejaculatio praecox". {{unsigned ip|108.162.231.222}}
 
 
I'm not native speaker, but it's "it's likely that ..., it's not entirely true" English? Wouldn't "it's likely that ..., it's not necessary true" be better? -- [[User:Hkmaly|Hkmaly]] ([[User talk:Hkmaly|talk]]) 16:39, 22 December 2013 (UTC)
 
:Yes - I fixed it.--[[User:Greenrd|Greenrd]] ([[User talk:Greenrd|talk]]) 20:14, 22 December 2013 (UTC)
