As a soft matter material, the unique properties of colloidal glasses make it a particularly useful platform to study fundamental physics of amorphous solids. In the article, we briefly review the connections between colloidal glasses and molecular amorphous materials by surveying applications of colloids in different aspects of glass researches. And we also give future directions of colloidal glasses researches in the end.
