Not exactly Fashion Week!


The big news coverage regarding Google Glass last week involved its presence at New York's Fashion Week. As pointed out by this example from HuffPo, product placement was in high gear.

But my big news was wearing glass to a Boise State Broncos football game at Bronco Stadium, home to the legendary blue turf. The turf has always been photogenic, and on Friday afternoon and evening, it was no exception. Plus, from our seats near the very top of the south endzone, the view of the surrounding city and foothills was stunning, with an ever-changing tableau of sun-drenched cloud formations which eventually turned into rain clouds, bringing more much needed moisture to our end-of-summer, parched environment.

As far as wearing Glass, let's just say it was not exactly Fashion Week! Note that "selfies" with Glass still require the good old front-hall-closet mirror of something similar! And outside of photography, I should add that XE9's "Sound Search" was a kick, helping to identify many of the stadium's selections for between-plays music.

(My earlier post, Blue Turf #ThroughGlass, includes some of the aforementioned photos.)
