Tokyo Olympics, Bluetooth, Pigs...

Tokyo 2020 Olympics
Yeah, see you in 2020 at Tokyo.


All Olympics promotional videos are inspirational...

I'm not impartial person but I think the Tokyo's promotional video is the best, because we have a bunch of nerds who specialize in creating and editing a video masterpiece.

So will it be good for Japan to host Olympics?
People has been joyful and cheerful over the decision made by IOS that Japan will host Olympics in 2020. But one of my friends working in the "underworld"(not like she's commiting crimes though) said today that it means more regulations against underworld business. Olympics will definitely attract a lot of people and at the same time more money will be spent. To be continued... ↓

Is Hosting The Olympics Good For A City?

What is the benefits of hosting Olympics? Definite benefit would be the number of medals earned.
But it doesn't mean that it will help the economy to recover.

In 2020 there will be lots of foreigners coming into Tokyo to see Olympic games.
As an ICT guy, what I concern is the number of networking devices. In order for tablets and smartphones to operate out of their original scope, it needs standardized Wi-fi connection. I don't think Tokyo is Wi-fi friendly.

For example at Starbucks there is a WiFi router which attracts people with networking devices and allow them to use Internet, which ultimately benefits the store. (actually not sure, because if one customer stays longer thanks to WiFi router, it sure will reduce the amount of incoming customers.)


Useful Buffalo bluetooth
I bought iBuffalo Bluetooth keyboard which works for my Xperia Tablet Z and found this super useful. This works great for me since typing using Tablet interface is difficult for me.


Ok, today in a train, I was sitting and on the other side of the seats there was a man sleeping. He was very relaxed and eventually his head was fallen onto the shoulder of a woman seated next to him. And I still remember her cold eyes as if she's looking at pigs in pig farm. 養豚所のブタでも見るかのような冷たい目だった…
