Google Glass now has dedicated apps for TripIt, Foursquare and OpenTable

Google Glass went on sale to anyone in the US this week, and Google is now has put focus on the wearable device’s appeal to travelers with a series of new apps.

‘Glassware’ — as the company refers to Glass apps — from TripIt, Foursquare and OpenTable are now available for owners of the Google device. That, the company hopes, will make the decision to shell out $1,500 for Glass an easier one for some folks.

“Whether you’re trying to find your gate at the airport, the best coffee shop in Austin or a reservation for 2 in New York City, Glass has you covered,” the company said in a Google+ update.

We can think of far cheaper ways to stay connected while you travel — but if you already own Glass, or have decided that you must have it, then these new apps will be much welcome.
