Rise of the #Glassholes : Superior Tweets, Photos + Videos

What do you call people who wear Google Glass?  Googlers?  Nah, that’s already taken.  Glassers?  Hmm, I don’t think so, not too catchy.  How about Glassholes?  If you don’t like it, too bad.  The joke’s on us, the early adopters anxious to see how Google’s newest gadget will impact the market of devices and the Industrial Internet at large.

Why Glassholes?   There’s already a hashtag, of course.

Don’t get me wrong, I think Google Glass is cool and may really be a game changer, but it’s certainly a shift in wearable technology that will make a wearer stand out far more than any hipster touting a shiny new iPhone.

Given the hype Google Glass has garnered for over 12 months now, and the recent developments from Google I/O, we’ve compiled the best of the #glasshole meme, including tweets, photos, and videos of Google Glass wearers for us all to make fun. Enjoy!
