We live in an interesting time as technologies like Google Glass become more prevalent we’ll be able to witness first hand the experiences of others… from the comfort of our own home.

This week I was able to virtually graduate from Virginia Tech as Tam Ayers did yesterday:

Then the following day I got to go boating with Tam (someone I don’t even know) to celebrate the graduation.

Then I got to run barefoot with Barefoot Intactivist in NYC:

and watch the Warriors vs Spurs Game 4 in the cheap seats:

It’s amazing to me just how much data is being shared online and how easy it is now to share such data from a first person perspective. I see Google Glass changing the way we share our experiences with others and how others get to experience things they never themselves.

Google Glassware has been setup to auto hashtag videos and photos using #throughglass so if you too want live vicariously you can do so with some simple searches:
