Glass’ new GDK — or Glassware development kit — makes it easier for application developers to tap into the hardware, even when its offline, to perform tasks in real-time without having to go back and forth to servers in the cloud. It opens new possibilities for developers to build tools that center around either immersive or ongoing tasks (as opposed to, say, simply notifications about things like new email, or the ability to upload a photo and share it online).
So it looks like Glass is going to be heading toward a more "always-on personal assistant" than a whiz bang gadget. Personally I think that is a good things and pretty darn cool to boot. If you want all the details, head over to Wired and read Matt's whole take on this.
