Google Glass is back!

- Google Glass is back! The original Glass designers had starry-eyed visions of masses blissfully living their lives in tandem with a wraparound frame and a tiny computer screen hovering over their eye.

Now the focus was on making a practical workplace tool that saves time and money. Announced today, it is called Glass Enterprise Edition. More here
