Future shock: The Google Contact Lens comes closer

One of my fetish items of future-tech, the Google contact lens, is a step closer to realisation.  Boffins at the University of Washington have succeeded in putting a circuit inside a wearable contact lens matrix.  The possibilities are endless but what gets me tickled is the prospect of seriously augmented reality. 

And in case you felt young, it's 25 years since breakfast TV first aired in the UK.  I remember it starting up, and that makes me feel damn ancient.  Will we live to see the unbearably cool stuff the future has to offer?  I hope so!
