Notes

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

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

LOL! Big Earthquake hitting right now as we’re talking about earthquakes here at #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

Nikkei: Nobody in this country knew what was going on at the Fukushima nuclear plant… including the Prime Minister! (crowd LOL) #ncc2011

ahh… like right now, I wish people would stop RT’ing @tamegoeswild’s tweet and use the official Twitter Retweet button. #ncc2011
