I have low vision. The Glass is a wonderful tool for me. The heads-up navigation that helps me walk around in areas I don't know well is great. I can't read the street signs very well and having the audio tell me and help me "see" them better is great.
I think this tool has a lot of potential to make people's lives better.
But instead, people crap all over it and stigmatize it. And that's why I can't really wear it much anymore. I find it useful, but people call me a "glasshole" - especially other developers.
Fact: If you look different, people will make fun of you. Apparently that isn't something you outgrow as an adult.
