With respect, I doubt that'll be in the 'near' future for these. The problem with recording video is that you actually have to capture the photons to do that. Capture the photons on the recording media, and they are no longer available for the eye to 'see'.

Interesting objection, but easy to overcome. You do realize that the lens also will also have the ability to project light into the eye, right? So why not just project the capture back into the eye? In fact, this could be a feature. The user would have the ability to turn off the recording to see reality, or turn it on to see replicated reality, in-other-words, a video feed of what they are "seeing" (of course augmented with whatever information the user wants). You could adapt filters to this incoming replicated reality, like various video effects or themes, like zombie filters so that all humans look like zombies (random thought, I know), or characters from your favorite MMO, or to adapt landscapes to match your favority movie, like having Transformers flying around or battling in the streets above you.

But I digress.

Exactly. In fact, diverting a percentage of the incoming light would serve as a form of adaptive sunglasses.

Good lord, that would make for the most boring home videos ever. "And here I am, driving to work for the 857th time..."

Actually, I was thinking more in the direction of "And here I am, banging my super-hot ex-girlfriend for the 1st time...when we were 18."

I know, this is Slashdot, so that scenario wouldn't really apply to anyone here. The driving one, how ever...

"Low Priority Traffic" = Names on the "terrorist" watch list, journalist posting a non-desirable story exposing government corruption, citizens attempting to organize a protest, etc.

This is Network "Control". Not control like in TCP, more like Psychological Control.

Another inevitable function of this contact lens is recording video. Everything you see passes through this lens, so you will be able to record everything you see (except, of course, for dreams and hallucinations).

It would be like Tivo for your life.

Unless the pigeon comes back it's certainly not TCP, more like Pigeon UDP.

UDP = Useless Dead Pigeon

That, and you'll end up with an army of ants swarming the sugary concoction. Pretty much all insects will find it tasty.

This is obviously a plot by the Society of Birds to make more food for their feathered friends.

This will make my job of Industrial Espionage much easier.

• I can eavesdrop on your phone calls (I'm in your office now)
• I can view your computer screen (I'm looking over your shoulder).
• I can take sneak peaks at your hard copy documents you are reading (as I walk around your desk and pretend to read the paper).

Just think of the possibilities. I might even be able to go home early!

As you have no doubt guessed by now, I live in the United States of America.

How can one challenge the accuracy or flaws in the record generated by the GPS receiver in your car? GPS's suffer all kinds of issues in cities like New York with signal bounce, etc., which result in flawed positions. Who reviews the accuracy of the data, or are you just SOL?

I can just see the fun government tax forms you'd have to fill out to get a refund for GPS errors that resulted in mileage errors over the course of a year. Not to mention, what if you're a farmer who drives only on private roads not maintained by county/state/fed? What if you're private road parallels a major highway and the GPS incorrectly thinks you're driving on the highway and hence taxes you? There are dozens of issues this convoluted system will generate for the consumer/citizen/sheeple.

...their website is being served off of the flapping bird robot, and said robot has crashed.

They can make flapping wing flying robots, but can't make a slashdot proof webserver, meh.

Which came first? The chicken or the egg.

Neither: It was the Rooster who came first (it happens to every guy once in a while).
