Notes

Short, title-less, often half-baked. Published anyway.

@Joi: There’s an image of “if it’s cheap, it’s bad” in Japan. #WORD #ncc2011s

Evernote CEO @plibin: “There are ‘doing stuff’… and then there are a whole bunch of stuff that just waste time!” #ncc2011s

@Joi: The problem of “Division of Labor” in Japan. If people can all work closely together, then things will move much faster. #ncc2011s

@Joi: What used to be expensive & can only be done by govrnmnts can now be done by individuals w/ open source software & hardware! #ncc2011s

Cheap Russian Geiger counters are $200~300, the one @Joi holds up is ~$700. High end ones range from $3K ~ 15K. #ncc2011s

In Soviet Russia, Radiation Owns You! #ThisIsNotYoutube #ncc2011s

In Soviet Russia, it was illegal for normal citizens to own a geiger counter. #ncc2011s

FACT: There are more hula dancers in Japan than in Hawaii. #NowYouKnow #ncc2011s

Ya know… may be #ncc2011s should be hosted in Yoyogi Park instead! LOL

Crowd went “Woooo” and then laughed as people’s cell phones started to beep. #ncc2011s

@Joi measured Murai sensei’s radiation level on stage (to keep us safe?) LOL #ncc2011

Really enjoyed listening to Nikkei Media Director & Senior Writer @KSausalito. Good insights! #ncc2011

Rumors in disasters: @HirokoTabuchi: After Kobe quake, there was a rumor that her neighbor’s white tigers had escaped. :P #ncc2011

@hirokotabuchi: Painfully aware of “Short Media Attention Span” as her hometown Kobe was still rebuilding 2 yrs after quake. #ncc2011

so question is, how do you keep important subjects “on the front page”, so to speak. #ncc2011

@Joi “Power of Twitter fades after the heat of the moment like traditional media. Whereas blogs get resurfaced again & again.” #ncc2011
