BarCamp Tokyo 2010

Image
I attended Tokyo BarCamp 2010 yesterday, held at Oracle Office in Gaien-mae. The album is here. It is a kind of alternative camp of "foocamp", and it is one of "unconference". Some companies like Oracle, Opera, and some like IT's supports this camp. All of volunteer staffs are really fun and attractive poeple, as all attendees might felt. This time I did not have a talk, but I will try next chance! There was a tomb of Sun.

Started Twitter in English.

I have had my twitter account as @okdt , but it is not kind for English speakers because I write in Japanese. So, I set up my new account as @tokyocrowds tweeting in English only. I am really happy if you follow @tokyocrowds and speak to the account about anything regarding your interest about Tokyo and Japan.

This is some old picture. At some key place in Tokyo, Google set some "marks" of Google Map. It was real one and big!! Some people do care for it, but I guess all of them cannot understand what this mean.

RAINBOW

Today, when I see the twitter page, some friends tweet "RAINBOW ahead!" or some like that. I am happy to see such a great rainbow for a few minutes before the sundown.
