Barry Schwartz Fake Google GlassWhile today may be April 1st, aka April Fools Day, I am not joking around when I say that I am getting Google Glass.

I wrote about it last Thursday at my company blog on how I will use it to integrate technology into Jewish life and I blogged about it at Marketing Land on how I was accepted and I was.

Getting Glass

Is that a real picture of me with Google Glass? No! It is April Fools by the way. Oh and make sure to check out our new advertisers. ;-)

Truth is, I was accepted and I do not know exactly when I will be getting them and when I do, I'll make sure to post real photos. Until then, I am Google Glassless.

FYI, I am offline today and thankful that I am. April Fools is a horrible day to cover news.
