2013-05-15
yeah another question Hi Larry that's Greg with de sky 9 we're developing apps for Google glass and I was really excited to see the all the new things that Google is providing and also realized that it kind of trounced most of his easting businesses I was wondering if you could speak to what you feel are the largest area of opportunities for developing on glass outside of what Google will provide naturally and a bonus question what will be the production run for glass for consumers well i mean i have to assyria doubts but site i don't know what the production numbers will be i think we're more focused on with glass glass is a new category it's quite different than the existing computing devices and so i think it's great that we've started on it but I think our main goal is to get happy users using glass and so we put on you know a bunch out to developers I see a lot of people with them in the audience we want to make sure we're building experiences that really make people happy and so the team has tried to build the minimal set of things just rip rack t'kul sake minimal set of things that will provide a great experience and make happy users and then you can get going and work on it for the next 10 years in the ivory successive one is going to be better obviously so I think part of the answer is we don't know you know I think the basic use cases we have our own photography are amazing i love taking kids of my pictures of my kids with glass and movies and so on and i find that you know for me that's enough i have the young kids for me that's another reason to have glass just there i think if you didn't have young kids you might not feel exactly that way i'm not sure i don't i have young kids so can tell communications are also pretty amazing navigation is amazing certainly if you're walking you know if you're in manhattan or something having glass for navigation is unbelievable i find is really really nice and i also find that navigations amazing some of the core experiences we have our think are pretty amazing communications phone calls has some buses voice you saw the things we're doing around voice it's amazing to always have the device there to do that so I think ultimately a lot of your experiences can move to glass and we're relying on all of you to figure all that out we're trying to get the base thing to make app users so we can get on with it we're lined with that thank you you're welcome
