Google Glass update adds web browsing, widens voice commands (update: images)
Posted in: Today's Chili
Google has delivered a steady stream of Glass updates since the Explorer Edition launched, but its new July upgrade may be the biggest yet — it addresses several of our earliest gripes. Wearers can now answer phone calls or have messages read aloud. It’s also now possible to call or message any Gmail contact, not just the top ten. Oh, and that hidden web browser? It’s now public: Glass owners can ask to see a favorite page and navigate using the touchpad. If you’re one of the precious few to sport Google’s eyewear, you should automatically receive the much-improved firmware in the next few days; we’ve already heard of at least one user getting the upgrade today.
Update: We now have screenshots of how browsing works in the update — check them out below.

It’s been possible for Twitter fans to embed posts and whole timelines for some time, but authors almost wouldn’t know it when they aren’t told that the sharing takes place. Users may not be in the dark for much longer — F-Secure’s Mikko Hypponen noticed this weekend that Twitter was briefly listing the sites embedding a given tweet. We’ve asked Twitter for more details, but the quick disappearance of the feature suggests that the company was conducting field tests. If the addition becomes permanent, it would be consistent with Twitter’s desire to track major events — we’d know just which tweets get the web community buzzing.
