‘If I Had Glass’…I’d throw it at your face

What would you do if you had Google Glass? The public weighs in and the joke is on Google.

Google had a little contest. They asked the public to tell them what they would do with a set of Google Glass, the tech company’s upcoming digital eyewear. Creative respondents were awarded with the chance to buy the futuristic tech specs before anyone else.

As it turns out, the people who won the contest didn’t necessarily have the cleverest proposals. Will Oremus, tech blogger for Slate, joins Marketplace Tech host David Brancaccio to discuss Google’s campaign winners and losers.
