What would the Google Glass project look like if Microsoft got its hands on it? A new video shows exactly what it would be like. The Google Glass project is an attempt to bring Augmented Reality (AR) to the masses via a pair of active glasses that you use to view a "heads up" display of useful information. The project has provoked a lot of humorous responses on YouTube and elsewhere.
