How is this for an app? Google goggles (currently only available for Android phones) lets you use your phone camera to take a picture of an object (a book, a building) and it will return relevant information to you. So imagine, you’re in a museum, point at a painting and it will tell you who it was painted by! For businesses you don’t even need to take a picture; just pointing your camera is enough. How cool is this for (beginning) language learners who could use it to point at everyday objects?
