Forget Google Glass, Google Debuts ‘Talking Shoe’ Concept At SXSWi, Wants More Social

Meet Google’s “talking shoe” that aims to translates movement data in witty messages to users and their friends. The concept apparel, showcased at the search giant’s swanky SXSW Interactive headquarters, is part of a new arts project, “Art, Copy, Code,” aimed breathing a social, life-like experience into everyday objects. “If standing still was a sport, you’d be world champion,” the trash-talking shoe projects on an monitor hanging over a rainbow-colored obstacle course, after it senses I’ve been standing still.
