Video: See the World through Google Glass

Have you been contemplating the purchase of Google's space-age ocular dream weavers, aka Google Glass? Well this video may be all the prompting you need. Take a virtual spin through the world as seen, read, recorded, measured, and shared by Google Glass. From hot air balloon snapshots to birthday home videos and virtual hangouts, these specs are looking to take communication to new heights. (And the "Ok, glass" prompts are pretty cool.)

As Buzzfeed points out, it's unclear whether the user interface in the upper right corner of the feed is real or has been inserted, but if this is anything close to what the experience is going to be like once these babies are consumer-facing, we're going to start hoarding our pennies now.
