Announcing the release of new Google Glass Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, CNN And Evernote applications, adding to the Path and NYT applications already announced.
Google Glass Tumblr App
– The Google Glass Tumblr app for Glass allows you to receive updates from your Tumblr dashboard, and you can adjust the frequency with which you receive those. It also lets you post all kinds of content, including text, images and video. This means that users can stay connected with their favorite blogs and communities without needing to pull out their smartphones. The app’s integration with Google Glass allows for a seamless experience where users can quickly share their thoughts or capture moments on the go. For instance, if you come across an interesting scene or event, you can instantly share it with your followers on Tumblr, making the experience more interactive and immediate.
Facebook App on Google Glass
– The Facebook app on Google Glass essentially acts as a new photo sharing tool, giving users a chance to immediately post pics to their FB timeline, and to then add captions and descriptions to those images via voice input once they’re posted. This feature is particularly useful for those who love to document their daily lives and share them with friends and family. Imagine being at a concert or a scenic location and being able to capture and share the moment instantly without fumbling with your phone. The voice input feature also adds a layer of convenience, allowing users to add personal touches to their posts without needing to type.
– The Twitter app provides your stream, as well as posting capabilities and the power to snap photos from Glass and post them direct to your stream. This app ensures that you never miss out on the latest tweets from the people you follow. Whether it’s breaking news, updates from friends, or trending topics, everything is just a glance away. The ability to post photos directly from Google Glass also means that you can share your experiences in real-time, making your Twitter feed more dynamic and engaging.
– Evernote on Glass holds true to its note-taking roll, giving users the ability to have their notes shared to Glass from the web or mobile apps. This is a game-changer for productivity enthusiasts. Imagine being able to access your to-do lists, reminders, and important notes without needing to look at your phone or computer. Whether you’re in a meeting, on a hike, or cooking in the kitchen, Evernote on Google Glass ensures that all your important information is always within your line of sight.
In addition to these apps, Google Glass also supports CNN, allowing users to receive breaking news alerts and updates directly to their eyewear. This ensures that you’re always informed about the latest happenings around the world, without needing to check your phone constantly.
