Notes

@Joi “‘Open’ by having multiple players is different from ‘Open’ owned by 1 giant company & giving it away for free.” #ncc2010

U know u’re in Japan too long when u read that as “in Kansai” RT @papadimitriou @jonnyli in Kansas for @startupweekend

1st time hearing Joi speaks in Japanese, he sounds so different, sometimes off pitch. LOL :P

@mikamika59 yeah, did u hear him speak last year at twtr.jp launch event? I think Twitter has great “value” & “love”, not just business.

20 millions small biz in US mostly bypassed web. New local ads tools coming. (by @FourSquare, in regards to Google Places API?) #ncc2010

Question for @FourSquare: Your thoughts on Google Places API? Threat? Opportunity? #ncc2010 @on_lab

@seanbonner I also wonder how many of those are bots owned by Vanessa

Yeah, creating too much noise on our hashtag RT @seanbonner: People are still retweeting @Biz’s “triumph of humanity” #NCC2010

@FourSquare RT @Doc_MacPro @kousuke: I’m at Digital Garage w/ BOREDOM #ncc2010 http://4sq.com/7H1KiY

Traditional Japanese 1-way “meeting” right? They have a term for this, don’t they? RT @stevenagata: Ok, this is not good #ncc2010

Zzzzzzzzzz continues RT @mreinsch: too much product advertisement at #ncc2010 right now - we case for discussions, not ads

#ncc2010 WAKE UP! @FourSquare talking now!

Traditional Japanese style presentation now at ncc2010. Enjoy! zzzzzz

Social Media: Twitter allows people to connect with traditional media OUTSIDE of their allocated 1 hr / week slot on TV or whatever #ncc2010

@biz “There’re soap operas now, where the characters are not on the show, but u can follow them on Twitter!” #ncc2010

@biz “Smacking the Japanese down to 70 characters is NOT on the roadmap.” YET! #ncc2010

RT@nobi_com 日本企業、疲弊してて生み出す元気ないこと多いのでTwitterのwork-life balanceについて聞いた。皆でワイン飲んだり、毎日、職場に来るのが楽しくなる環境つくっている。そこで生まれるモチベーションの高さがクラフトマンシップにも影響してると思う

#ncc2010 I wonder if @biz will limit Japanese to 70 characters in order to improve creativity. LOL
