a bunch of people should go there wearing button cameras, or using pen cameras, etc
google glasses stands out, other tiny cameras do not
SEATTLE — Nick Starr is among the first people to own a Google Glass.
“I wear it everywhere I go,” he said.
Last week, that got him kicked out of Lost Lake Cafe, on Seattle’s Capitol Hill.
Co-owner David Meinert doesn’t allow the new internet-browsing glasses, which can record video and audio and take photos.
“One, I think they make you look stupid,” Meinert said.
More importantly, Meinert says they have the potential to violate the privacy of other customers.
“I think we need our laws and our social etiquette to catch up with our technology,” Meinert said.
Starr says a voice command to have the Glass record video, and a prism visible near his eye, make it difficult to use the glasses surreptitiously.
“I don’t like my photo being taken, I don’t like being on camera, so I understand that aspect of it, but I know that everywhere I look there’s a camera, there’s a photo, there’s someone taking a selfie that I might be in the background of,” Starr said.
Starr says he wore his Google Glass to the same restaurant several times before without a problem.
He was so upset about being kicked out, he posted on Facebook calling for the worker to be fired.
“I’d sooner have no self-entitled tech nerds coming to my business than firing one of my employees over something like that,” Meinert said in response.

People who wonder if the glass is half empty or full miss the point. The glass is refillable.

Politicians need to cut spending
Awwww...poor little hipster.
Most of all I like bulldozers and dirt
Imagine that, a restaurant that imposes behavior rules on its customers. Nest thing ya know they won't be letting in people without shoes or shirts.
