An exceptionally tactile creature that forces your opponent to waste extra removal spells is amazing. Its cost isn't too bad and it makes for a strong addition in almost any blue deck. But what would be really interesting is if there were a card that can copy the glasskite's ability and add it to other creatures that you control. Has anybody heard of such a card before?
combos well with summoning trap. Just use a 1 drop, it gets countered and you can play a big fatty with the trap

@danyo: Summoning Trap requires a creature to be countered, and Jetting Glasskite only counters spells or abilities that target it.
I see Rancor as being a good counter to this ability.
edit: nevermind, rancor requires it be on the battlefield first.

The best example I can think of is some sort of wacky combo involving Volrath's Shapeshifter...

Have a nice body, big enought to attire the attention of the opponent and have it wish to target it. A bit costy, but can live a lot longer than Air Elemental. Just play cards that target opponent's creature, not yours, and this can be a real beater! Also, virtual card advantage, since if your opponent doesn't want to waste a removal to "break" the shield, he/she have a dead card in hand... Even better if he/she doesn't have 2 removal in hand... For me, a little understimated 4/5

Kira, Great Glass-Spinner and Erayo, Soratami Ascendant both do that.
