That sounds like a pretty pointless way to get a handful of broken glass.
Have you seen the YouTube video with Bas Rutten, where he talks about barfights and weapons? He tells about the first time he tried to take two beer bottles and slam them together to get one broken beer bottle in each hand, like they do in the movies. But all he ended up with was two severely cut hands...

I haven't seen that, sounds like an entertaining video.
I remember being told that if you must smash a bottle over someone's head, let go of it just a few inches before impact so they get the full effect without you getting cut up. I've never tested this theory, though.
if you imagine holding a shot glas with the bottom flat against your palm and then striking someone with the rim very hard... the rim would shatter against their skin but the bottoms are so thick that they will stay together unless they are hit with a sledge hammer.
Oh, and if you havent seen Boondock Saints, go watch it!

Depends on the shot glass - you aren't breaking one of the short-thick ones on any part of a human, the taller & thinner ones - maybe.
