Google Saves Us From The Optometrists!

Google has come out with a pair of glasses that combine the best features of regular glasses, sunglasses and the best features of computer technology!  I'm only going to consider buying a pair when they are also in 3D.


These Google glasses also have a varied price range.  They went up for public sale on May 15, 2014, but before that they were in the Beta testing stage.  The price range right now is $1500, and more if you want interchangeable frames and lenses.  The frames come in different colors like black, blue, silver, tangerine and white.  I like the blue frame the best.



The person wearing the glasses is able to do whatever the glasses are designed to do.  The wearer can access the internet with voice activation or commands.  You could watch TV on your glasses while you are streaming the internet, or walking the dog.  This probably was first developed by the military.  The military would use this technology for communication between different locations.  They could also search for different identities and locations of individuals.


Here is an example of how you could check the weather on the Google glasses like a movie projector, but in digital form.  So only the viewer can see the information.  This gives perfect privacy to the user.  


The Google glasses probably looked like this in the beginning as a prototype.  They are going to evolve into the Google glasses you know today.


They are also going to use Google glasses for the Google car that is coming out.  The Google car is a vehicle that does not have a driver...it's driverless...you could use the glasses in the car if you wanted to.  The Google cars are not not for sale yet as far as I know.  I would like to see the Google glasses replace all the glasses that people wear.



This technology would also be helpful if you couldn't use your hands or arms because you could still use your eyes to use the Google glasses.  This could really help people with physical and psychological disabilities.  Like most Google products, Google glasses are perfectly safe.  I can't wait to see what Google comes up with next!  My suggestion to Google would be to interface the human brain inside of robots and computer databases.  This is like the movie the Matrix 1 and the movie the Terminator.  I will not be blogging until sometime in December, I'm going on vacation to Mexico!  When I get back, I will google about google's car, and other innovations.  So see you then bloggers!

Google + Saves Social Media From Gossip!

Google + is the newest thing to come out of Google.  Google started out as a search engine and has evolved into a social media site that does not do gossip.  This is referred to as Google Plus.  It's rival is Facebook.  Facebook is the one that does nothing but pictures and gossip.  Google + on the other hand does things in categories just like their search engine, but more organized.


This is one of the many images from Google + and what Google + looks like.  It looks like its not too simple and  not too complicated, mostly young people go to this form of social media.  Google + is the one where mostly young people go to.  Every month, more than 540 million people are using Google +.  During it's private beta testing period, Google + grew to 10 million users after only 2 weeks, which to me suggests that more people like Google + than Facebook.  


As yo can see from this evolutionary chart of social media sites, Google + is the most evolved!  They are ahead of Twitter and Facebook, according to this highly 'factually-based' picture.  


The United States ranks #1 as Google + users, followed by India as #2.  The reason that China is not in the #1 or #2 ranking is because of the strict regulations in that country.  Unlike in America, China knows how to keep their citizens in line.


This picture symbolizes that lots of Goggle + viewers have little bits of freedoms, such as social media hangouts, huddles and circles.  A Google + circle is a small personalized social group of friends.  A huddle is a small group chat option for phones....and a hangout is a video chat and instant message option.  In my opinion, Google + is the wave of search engines, social media sites and will be the future of all internet based companies for the private sector with help from their friends, the NSA. ...even though the NSA does not spy on them.  Someday Facebook, like all fads will go out of business.  I hope you had fun reading my blog.  If you have any suggestions about improving my blog, feel free to post your suggestions in the comment box please.  Please keep your comments positive.  My next post will be about Google glasses.
