google glass and snapchat spectacles were both such wildly successful products, which we all trampled one another to get, of course facebook-wunderkind-who-isn't-really-a-wunderkind will succeed with possibly the most unappealing glasses ever made since someone ended up with auto glass in their eyes after flying through a windshield in a collision.
