The future is now.

Works in Chrome, either use the arrows in the left of the video or use WASD to look around.
Also if you're on an Android phone, update the YouTube app and you can simply move your phone around to look around.

Interesting stuff, will be interesting to see how content creators might utilise this.

I've actually messed around with Google glass a bit, there was one for sale in CeX and I had to try it. Its an interesting concept but really I feel they are lacking a lot of features to make them anything more than a gimmick to most at this point. But yeah its an interesting time in technology that's for sure. Since smartphones are pretty much a standard now almost, people are looking for that next shift in technology to come along I think.

Like Steve Jobs said, people don't know what they want until you show them.
