How to convince young Jews around the world to put on tefillin? Using Google Goggles.
Google recently launched special glasses containing a cell phone, small screen, GPS antenna, microphone and headphones. The glasses can decode voice commands, record video and photos and communicate between devices.
The Chabad Online site reports that Chabad emissary at Stanford University, USA, Rabbi Dov Greenberg, decided to use the new product in an original way. He purchased the product and offered every Jewish youngster who would put on tefillin, to lay tefillin and read the Shema Yisrael using the screen specs. "This is a remarkable Jewish experience", described the messenger.
One of students who layed tefillin, wrote in his blog: "I do not know how Rabbi Greenberg was able to get his hands on the Google goggles, since they were now released only to a small audience. Perhaps the fact that he is the Messenger of Chabad at the University helped him? Maybe someone donated them? Probably. "
"Rabbi Greenberg told me there had never been so many Jewish students who laid tefillin on one day, some of them for the first time."
