I'm going to be severely disappointed in their marketing department if these don't get named "Googly Eyes(TM)"

Oh, wow. QFT. Or at least "Google Eyes(tm)". It needs to be adopted as a verb, too, meaning "to view with Google's AR product." "So, I was walking down the street, when I looked over and Googleized [ed. note: Googlized?] a sweet sale across the street at this shop..."

See, Farskeee? As I said on G+ or wherever it was, it's all about presentation.
