TweetUp Japan 2010

As Evan Williams, co-founder and CEO of Twitter has come one week to work here with us in Tokyo, we prepared a meeting of Twitter users in Japan. Evan is happy about our work with Twitter Japan; we are now one of the 10 most used Internet services in Japan beating Mixi and Facebook.

We had a great time during the TweetUp and we met a lot of popular Twitter users in Japan. Here are some pictures of the event:

This guy instead of having the Twitter whale on the head was wearing it on his shoulders.

Food iPhone 4 cases

Now that cases for the iPhone 4 are selling like hotcakes, this Japanese company has taken the opportunity to release these cases that look like some food is protecting the screen. The idea is kind of similar to the popular Sushi pendrives. I wonder if they will also release a version for the iPad.

Draft beer on board

Japanese airline ANA will be the first airline in the world to offer draft beer on board.

Draft beer on board

Up until now it was not possible because it is forbidden to have high-pressure CO2 inside a plane. To solve that problem ANA has developed a new kind of keg that uses the CO2 generated by dry ice at 200Kpa pressure (inside the permitted limits on board).
