Google Will Stop Selling Glass Next Week

The Explorers program is coming to an end

Maybe it was a good thing that I returned my Google Glass shortly after I received it. I still think it’s a good idea, and hopefully with the use of the data gathered through the Explorer Program, they’ll be able to fine tune some things that didn’t work out so great, and continue to develop what did work well.

What do you think? Do you think Google is pulling it because it failed,, or because this was merely stage 1? Include your comments below.

Fascinating. Thanks for keeping us up to date. I heard it here first!

What is it they say? A failure is really a step closer to success, because now you’ve learned what doesn’t work. I’m sure Google learned a ton from their experience with Glass, and they’ll be back with another offering before long. If not Google, then someone else.
