玩转城市谷歌眼镜的旅行体验

I decided to take a three-day trip, not to put Glass to the test, but to explore the upsides and downsides of different ways of navigating the world. With my husband, Drew, and our 21-month-old son, Jack, I'd spend one day finding my way using Glass, another relying on a guidebook and a third taking tips from locals. I chose to go to San Juan, Puerto Rico. My goals for each day were simple--to find a fun cultural activity, a great place to eat and a shop where I could buy something interesting and tasteful. Simple, but not necessarily easy.

我决定去旅行三天，不是测试谷歌眼镜，而是探索不同游世界方式的优点和缺点。和我的丈夫德鲁(Drew)、21个月大的儿子杰克(Jack)一起，三天用了三种方法来找路：一天是用谷歌眼镜、一天是靠出行指南，一天则是向当地人求助。我选择波多黎各的圣胡安作为此行的目的地。我每一天的目标都很简单：找到一项有趣的文化活动，一个好吃的地方和一个可以买到有意思和有品位东西的商店。简单，但是未必容易。

The first morning, we stepped out of our rental apartment in Old San Juan, a walled, centuries-old neighborhood on the Atlantic coast. I tapped the side of Glass--half-hidden under my hat--to wake it up, and shifted my focus up to the screen, feeling slightly cross-eyed. I wanted to show off to my tech-savvy husband, but wasn't sure where to start. 'OK Glass,' I said tentatively, using the introduction to most of Glass's voice commands. I settled on 'explore nearby.' Google's Field Trip app began to display attractions in a slideshow of 'cards' I could swipe through by touching the side of Glass. El Yunque National Forest, a spectacular rain forest, was first--and an hour's drive away.
