    Instead of writing a separate post on some thoughts from my day out walking in Ginza/Yurakucho/Marunouchi, I went and updated all the moblog entries I posted today, so scroll down to have another look. I tend to keep my moblog entries so short because of my extreme slowness when thumb-typing. Update: As I wrote in…

    At the Mitsubishi Electric-sponsored DCROSS cafe, near Maru Biru. I was going to go to the Dragonfly Cafe, but it didn’t look too inviting — very sparse, almost clinical, interior. Update: I was really disappointed by that Dragonfly Cafe. I quite like the one in Aoyama, and often go there (and bring people along), and…

    A Brutus taste-testing event at Maru Biru. Update: They also had a counter where they were selling past issues of the magazine.

    Atelier Muji is currently covering environmental issues. Update: This picture was of course taken at the Yurakucho Muji, but my big Muji surprise for the day was when I got back to Ikebukuro and went to another Muji to buy something (a mixer) and saw a foreigner working at a register! She was blonde, and…

    Oh my — a Hanshin Tigers GameCube! Update: I spotted this at the Sofmap in Yurakucho (under the Muji store).

    About Houen, at the Design Gallery. Update: The show featured ceramic pottery in the form of dishes. Not really my taste.

    At the Ginza Sony Building, where you can try out new PSP games. Update: I had a blast (the most fun I’ve ever had at the Sony Building) and was probably there for close to an hour playing games. The wireless PlayStation Spot works like a charm, and I was able to try out 5…

    At the GGG for this month’s show. Update: The show, “Laboratoires CCCP,” was a real letdown for me — not really the kind of graphic work that I enjoy seeing. It’s probably the quickest I’ve ever checked out an exhibition at the GGG — I was out after 5-10 minutes.

  • NWA Ad

    The new NWA ad campaign. Update: The reason I took a picture of this is that I find it interesting how they’ve based the compaign around the use of the QR barcode. Just goes to show how popular it’s become — pretty much every ad you see includes a QR barcode that leads to more…

    Trying this flavor today — not bad.
