iPhone app HourFace now creating wheezing old 3D avatars better than ever
At Snapp!, we're doing the English-language (a bit of French and German too) promotion for the Japanese #1 hit HourFace, so feel free to hit me up on DM or email (mark[att]snapp.jp) for an iTunes App Store code if you fancy a look for a possible review or just wanna share the love. Full press release at the Snapp link, BTW.
And an RT, favorite, comment or whatever would be really appreciated - a lot of what we're doing is to support and promote the best local developers to show those naysayers abroad that Japan loves the iPhone too. MotionPortrait are definitely in the vanguard so far - we love their tech like a long-lost, avatar-shaped brother.
And thanks a million to everyone who's already chipped in...

In Japan, cell phone ringtones help cure hangovers, we're told...
The Sun's staff reporter should maybe learn the differenze between a "craze" and well-directed marketing hype, methinks. Sloppy, shoddy 'journalism.'

Get it while it's hot: Sanyo's solar bicycle parking lot opens today in Tokyo
Three months on from my first report, the Setagaya-ku facilities are open for business and looking great.
They got some perfect weather for the press launch this morning after a night of heavy rain. Thanks for the invitation, Mito-san!
BBC looks at Greenpeace Vs Japanese whaling - broad strokes but worth a read
The Tokyo Two issue (click the Greenpeace tag on this site for background) has been lamentably badly covered to date, but this at least gives a rough idea of what's happening.
As someone working in the Japanese media, I find it hard to deal with stories from the local side treating environmental activists as 'terrorists' ( I grew up in Belfast in the early 1970s and have no little experience of the subject), so it's pleasing to see a little balance. Let's just hope this is followed up.
