Will the designer in charge of Google Glass and Nest’s “thoughtful home” kit end up eclipsing his former workmate Jony Ive?

This is a really interesting article about the guy that Google has employed to help with a lot of their big gadget-related products. I think he’s got some great insights, based on this article and video interview, and it will be interesting how he takes these projects to the next level. I agree that wearables are still in their infancy, so as the guy who essentially helped to bring some of my favorite mobile devices to life, it’ll be interesting to see where he takes Google Glass as well as some of those other IoT items out there.
