Google's Project Glass... it's spreading (sample video)

Now, we're not saying Google's elite are actually aliens managing human social affairs, but if you were our reader Ben who ran into a crew of Project Glass-equipped Googlers breaking for drinks at a Los Gatos wine bar, it might seem like a possibility. Beyond filing tons of paperwork, the team is clearly expanding quickly and most recently took part in the Google+ photographer's conference to show off what POV pictures and video (even if that's most of the functionality so far) could add to the world of photography. They wouldn't let Ben try on a pair, but Vic Gundotra reiterated that it was positioned as not to interfere with conversations, and make images appear to be floating in front of your eye. There's video of the photography presentation after the break (jump to about 45 minutes for the first person pics), as well as a few more pictures on Google+, but we'd keep a pair of special black sunglasses and bubblegum handy just in case. In addition to these candid snaps, some sample video footage, taken with the glasses has popped up on Google+, also after the brek.

[Thanks, Ben]
