(Future) App of the day

This is one we’re pretty excited about! Even though it’s an app that isn’t here yet, will only affect a specific type of person and at the beginning will only be in one particular location, it’s just so cool we had to share it with you guys.

Who here like’s football? We do! We do! And, we’re lucky enough to be fans of the 49er’s… cos, stay with me, their new Levi’s stadium in Santa Clara will be fully tech equipped to enhance the experience of the fans ( and opposing teams fans too we guess). Don’t forget this is the stadium that will host Superbowl 50 in 2016  OHMYGODSOEXCITING.

It has been announced that come the 2014 season, the stadium will have a high speed mobile infrastructure so you can post your Facebook fanpics and twitter your hearts out all you want without the signal being blocked.

So, that’s pretty cool, right?

Here comes the app. An app specific to Levi’s 49er’s stadium will be released that not only let’s you stream close-up game highlights and see stats relevant to the match you’re watching, but, and here’s the kicker- the app will let fans check the shortest food, beer and toilet lines in the stadium.

Whaaaaaat?

No more waiting for that delicious Hot Dog, or that sweet sweet beer, and that inevitable crossed legged dance in the toilet line can be avoided altogether!

Sweet Jeebus that sounds nice.

We’ll for sure be writing a detailed review of this app next year.

The things we do for you guys, honestly.

Anyone want google glass?

You guys have heard of Google Glass right?

The proposed future of wearable technology that will be the ultimate integration of life and computer?

The thing that has some people up in arms about privacy and we’re all going to become androids aaaaagh?

The thing that you think kind of makes people look a bit silly but you really want to try out anyway?

A wearable computer with an optical head-mounted display? 

Augmented-reality glasses?

This thing?

Yeah, that thing.

Up until now it’s kind of been something you hear about in the press, but don’t realllly see right? If you live in a Tech city, or know someone lucky enough and really into their tech, you might have heard of someone who has one. Or someone whose whose cousin has one.

It’s quite frustrating, actually, no matter what your opinion about the technology involved.

You still want to be able to play with the silly futuristic tech toy that you can’t even play with for who knows how long, especially because you’re a reasonable person right? You wouldn’t have an opinion on something until you’ve actually experienced it, tried it, right?

But Google are in control and it’s just stupid, why do we have to wait for soooo long?

Well, kids, the time of Google Glass in the public domain is getting closer. One person at a time, actually.

Google has begun inviting more people to try Google Glass out. Participants in the Glass Explorer program for early adopters have been sent an email from Google, inviting them to, in turn, invite one friend into the Google Glass Explorer program.

The invitations are limited to people who are U.S. residents, at least 18 years old and able to pick up Glass in San Francisco, New York or Los Angeles.

Around 8000 competition winners are currently taking part in the Google Glass early explorer program, as well as the various tech heads around that are lucky enough to be testing them out.

So…. Time to put your thinking caps on guys. There is the actual possibility in the world right now for you to be able to play with new and supposedly futuristic technology before most of the rest of the world.

A small chance, probably, yes, but still a chance!

All you need to do is to go and find one of the early adapter people, make an amazing impression on them so that they pick you above their family and friends, and hence start using Google Glass. Cake?

Go to it! And soon you too can look like this…
