Developing ways to kiss digitally
via feedproxy.google.com Diginfo shows us a “kiss transmission device” that is being developed by the Kajimoto Laboratory at the University of Electro-Communications: That's right. Because in Japan, we believe EVERYTHING should have the ability to be sent electronically... And you know if they're working on sending kisses through the internet, they've got 2nd, and 3rd base under R&D as we speak. Ever see a movie called "Cherry 2000"? “This device is for communications within the mouth, in other words...

Chan Mika - "Ai no aru ho e" Live
via youtube.com ちゃんミカの曲、“愛のある方へ” One of the most beautiful song I've heard, sung by a real cool chick, Mika. We went to Grassroots Cafe in Yokohama to hear her set. It was real good, and when someone screwed up a note, the comedy ensues! Great evening, and I hope I get to hear her beautiful voice again!

Another example of fearmongering "journaltainment"
via twitter.com This is the reason why my mother was in tears on the phone PLEADING for me to come back home from Japan. This is also the reason I cringe when I remember what CNN used to be like before Time Warner's involvement. Maybe I'm just old-fashioned, but I think news should just be the facts... What happened and how it happened... not what some broad in New York 10,000 miles away SPECULATES what MAY have happened... Use that squishy goo between your ears people...

Fakin' The Funk: There's a Gundam in China! (not really)
via feedproxy.google.com via japanprobe.com The report here is talking about a fake-ass Gundam statue they put in some amusement park in Chengdu China. Just like that fake-ass Disneyland park I showed y'all last time, the park director is saying "This isn't a Gundam; Its purely original, straight from China. Sure it isn't... Tell you what. I'm gonna splash some yellow paint on an iPhone and sell it as the jPhone and count how many seconds it'll take for Apple's legal hounds to come callin'...

Some ideas on ebooks from @kevinrose [video]
Some ideas on ebooks [video] via kevinrose.com I've been thinking of ebooks for a while now... I write for a magazine here in town, @RANmagazine, and I'm kinda in charge of the online side of things. We've placed the mag online so you can read it with your iBooks, kindle and other e-readers... But I agree with what Kevin here is saying. I want more interactivity. People with iPads...

You couldn't get a more perfect fit than these clothes
Fabrican is a sprayable fabric created by particle engineer Paul Luckham and fashion designer Manel Torres. The clothing is formed by the cross-linking of fibers which create instant non-woven fabric that can be easily sprayed on to any surface. [via] Spray-On Dress Clothing in a Spray Can via toxel.com Wow. I've often said "her jeans looked SPRAYED ON, while admiring the curves of the opposite sex...

4-Year-Old Contracts Herpes After Used Condom Incident
via cbsatlanta.com My buddy's 4-year-old nephew contracted oral herpes from a dirty condom that he mistook for a baloon. The condom was found in a hotel room the family had just checked into. Why was the room not cleaned THROUGHLY before they checked in? Not sure where the tyke found it in the room-- if it was found under the bed, I could maybe understand a little; usually the staff is given only 20 minutes to completely change a room out between guests-- who'd put something under the bed? why would it...
