Google Glass: A drastic change for advertising?

Google Glass is a platform that works across applications as mobiles do , with the difference that is "hands-free" while working from voice commands. By just saying "Ok Glass" the device starts operating and one can record videos, transmit them “live" online, take pictures and whatever one can imagine through applications.
