I’m not certain whether this story is bogus or not (I don’t know the British papers), but apparently a man wore his Google Glass gizmo nearly 24 hours every day. He is now suffering from withdrawal symptoms when he doesn’t wear the device. He even dreams about it.
Is this for real?
Well as it’s from the Guardian which is a broad sheet, left-wing leaning paper (though it does have some of the best most balanced/informative science & technology writing in the UK papers), I’d guess the guy there is SOME truth to it…

Who knows how crazy a technology addiction could be?
I remember when I first got a computer and spent many, many hours with it — even though the only software it had was the BASIC programming language. That night, when I went to sleep, I still saw the blinking cursor.
