I’m not sure I buy the rationale. The person in the video says he receives so many text messages (he names emails, tweets, facebook updates) that he decided to build a device to see them right in front of his eye as they come in. It occurs to me that having emails, tweets or facebook updates alert you is hugely distracting. Personally, I would probably allow SMS on Glass, though, given that they are — in my filter bubble — usually important, used when coordinating and occur rarely enough that it doesn’t distract me. But email? No way!
