Looking at the examples, I cannot see why a Glass would be useful for me. I remember ingredients for something I want to cook. I can remember where I parked my car. I have a paper map for driving directions to unfamiliar places.

However, a Glass would be great when traveling/visiting a land which language I don't speak, for example Japan. The Glass could automatically translate signs for me and make me feel less 'lost'.

Feeling lost is a feature to me-- having the whole world speak one language would seem awfully boring to me.
If you're travelling for fun, yes - but if you're on business travel and need to be on time, then feeling lost is the last thing you would want.
