#5I'm confused. Firstly, the text in the header is not readable on mobile because it's the exact same colour as his jacket. Second, are they flying the winners to SF? Third, is the $1500 implying that you get a Google Glass for free? Fourth, is this a Google event or a 3rd party? It looks like an official Google site. Unclear. This was after one readthrough on my phone. Maybe I missed a FAQ link...

#6It's not from Google. This is only a hackathon to come up with ideas to enter in the #ifihadglass hackathon. There is no official affiliation.
The website was not optimized for mobile; because of the time limitations (contest just announced, ending in a week) everything had to be put together quite quickly.

#7It sounds like a joke: Using Google+ or Twitter, tell us what you would do if you could brainstorm ideas for Glass ... Google+ applicants will likely be ignored.

#8This site is so goddamn weird, it might as well have been a parody site, if I didn't know it was an unofficial hackathon.

#9>If chosen, you will not purchase a ticket of $1500 plus tax.
That's some strange wording. Could you clarify what it means?

It's an unofficial brainstorming session, where all you get to do is brainstorm with others about how to best apply for Google's contest.
