Glass

Yip Yip! Welcome to something dogs run into if it is too shiny or see through. Cats often run into glass as well, hehehe.

Well, glass is said to be a liquid, and is now classified as a solid again, (them sciency people have an even harder time making up their minds than us dogs!).

However, I hear that large search engine (google) has made some glasses with no glass. Confused? It's a new pair of glasses which have a small camera and microphone attached to them. They record movements and sounds from a persons point of view.
Currently, they run for 1500$ apiece, but are very hard to get because they are in prototype mode. If you ask me, it is Google's way to control the world. However, I must say this video is pretty cool: http://www.google.com/glass/start/how-it-feels/

This leaves me to the question: what would you do with glass?

Cons:
hey, every new technology has its downside. I mean, look at iPad Mini's, and Windows Vista, and others. Glass is fun to take pictures and videos with, is voice activated, but once connected online (clouds, fluffy and white) your world is available for all to see. There has been an article about a complex hack people can use to take over google glass. Google is working to fix the problem, but you can bet a canine like me would not get a pair until they are secure. :P
