That's probably not the smartest idea, as a recent criminal quickly learned. A man tried to steal New York tourist Mike Geller's headset by asking to try it on and then running off, only to be found soon after due to a third-party Glass app called LiveLens that recorded all of his moves after the theft.

You can check out a video compilation of the thief's day, that mostly included drinking and raving, after the break.
