Google glass vs apple iwatch

Google Glass is a wearable computer with an optical head-mounted display developed by Google with the mission of producing a mass-market ubiquitous computer. Google Glass displays information in a spectacle frame with a smart phone's hands-free format. Users of google glass communicate with the glass through voice commands through the Internet. Google Glass became officially available to the general public on May 15, 2014, for a price of US$1500. Before that users were required to receive invitations before they could try Google Glass.

Come to think of it, google glass does look like the iron man head gear:

Apple's iWatch is a smart watch project that Apple is reportedly aiming to launch with a special event in October of this year. Expect a device running iOS with biometrics and other features providing integration with other iOS devices.

According to the new report the supplier for the flexible displays that are to be used on the new Apple iWatch will be provided by LG.  Apple has also plans to launch their iWatch this year with two different screen sizes.

Apple is also aiming to sell around 9 million units of their iWatch till the end of 2014 with the help of LG, though the launch date is said to be in September. iWatch will also be introduced in two different sizes depending on the wrist size a user have, so Apple will come up with a 1.4 and a 1.5 inch iWatch.

According to a report released in February, LG was said to be the only supplier of displays for Apple’s iWatch and the mass productions of these smart watches will start as early as July 2014. Rumours also say that the reason Apple chose LG’s display was because of its power efficiency and the brightness that the screen offer with it, though every company with a smart watch is looking for something like that and it seems like Apple just got the right dealer.

A flexible display and a stylish design will not be the only two things that the iWatch will offer as it will also be loaded with different biometric sensors that will help you keep in check on your health daily with the help of an iPhone or an iPad. Apple may also come up with a luxury edition of their iWatch that is said to cost as high as $1000.

LG seems to be establishing a strong foothold, with the nexus phones that they are making for Google and the flexible screen that they are providing Apple. Let’s hope the screen technology is as good as the reports says as it would be as the most important thing for a smart watch is the battery life that it offers.

Which will reign supreme?

As quoted from raszl.com, these are the below similarities and differences:

What can both Google Glass and iWatch do?

1. Tell time
2. Perform basic search
3. Get notifications/alerts
4. Send updates/messages
5. Voice and touch input
6. Audio and visual output
7. Essentially hands free

What can Google Glass do that iWatch can't?

1. Navigation
2. Take pictures/video
3. Augmented reality
4. Control other devices

What can iWatch do that Google Glass can't?

1. Worn all the time (including restaurants, gym, even sleep and shower, etc.)
2. Record daily activity
3. Silent vibrating alerts
4. Kinetic battery charging
5. Pinch, two finger gestures
6. Payments

I guess the difference are just based on ones preference, the same as choosing between Samsung or Apple. It's either you go for the watch or the glass. 

5 things to do to handle criticism

You must have heard all those stuff people blabber about you. Yes, it's bloody hurting, especially so when it's from family and friends. It's something everyone of us face in our daily lives. But what do we do to face this problem?

1. Criticisms hurt.

First things first- anybody giving you criticism will intentionally or unintentionally hurt you. It is human nature to feel hurt when someone points out a flaw in us. We have to accept that we are all born humans and not robots. Nobody will be perfect in this world and everybody is flawed. When we understand that, we will be able to look beyond the hurt and then easily be able to deal with criticism.

2. Sift out good criticism from the bad ones.

All of us have an opinion but that doesn't mean they are always right. What matters  most would be knowing where the feedback is coming from and understanding the true intentions of the person who is giving you criticisms. A good friend or family member would only want you the best for you compared to a jealous hi-bye friend who only hurls nonsense to hurt your feelings and feel good about it later. When someone dear to you says something to you, they have your best interest in mind and possibly there is some truth to those words, especially even more likely if its heard before.

3. Be thankful for CONSTRUCTIVE feedback.

It's not easy to be honest and frank. Only people who care about you will be 100% transparent to you on how they feel. Take time to thank them for giving you friendly and helpful feedback. Appreciate the fact that the person told you something that can make you an even better person. On the other hand, please do laugh off and ignore any lousy words and destructive feedback. Don't, I repeat, don't let it affect you in anyway.

4. Work on your flaws.

Learn to work on the bad issues that you have. Sometimes it may not come from anyone but it's that few bad habits that you yourself are guilty of making. Identify the problems that you have and work on a realistic plan to break the habit. Support will definitely be given to you by your loved ones so keep your confidence up and keep moving forward.

And that's how you deal with criticisms. It's not that bad now right?
