Mattonabike from ShigaJet found this article which mentions DoCoMo's most recent "look in to the future", via a small video presentation displaying what the near future holds for technology.

Some pretty cool things like GPS built in to glasses and lots of other star-trek-esque gadgets worth having a look at in the video.

Despite not mentioning exactly when this near future is that they are so optimistic about, we have to give them credit as a previous DoCoMo look in to the future video revealed video conferencing on mobile devices, something which was laughed off at the time as unrealistic, which we can find in the majority of Japanese mobile phones these days...

Also, if you have some spare time and are interested:

If you happen to be in Japan, you can arrange a tour to Docomo's R&D Center, in the city of Yokosuka, Kanagawa Prefecture. we haven't been there ourselves but they have an exhibit called WHARF (Wealth, Human Activity and Revolution for the Future) that looks interesting. We guess the name says it all.

Apparently Japanese women are getting better. Oops.. I mean, they are getting larger busts, wider hips, more buttock, and thinner waists!

ボン！キュ！ボン！(the sound of 36-24-36) Bon! Kyu! Bon!

Praise the influence of American (ok, ok, `western`) eating habits. It is good to see the positive effects of a western diet in the women that I actually see on the street daily. For some time I have wondered where the idea that all Japanese women have tiny boobs came from, as my personal experiences point to a wide variety of Boobage, with wonderful proportions abounding (and bouncing).

"It's just more fun to show some skin,"

"I had a hard time finding button-down shirts that would close,"

"Sometimes the buttons would burst off."

A Bra Commercial, case in point. This is the chinese version, so the commentray is in Chinese. Alas.



Here are some pics of a few brands mentioned in the article.. I admit it was fun searching for them.. heh.. Click Here for the Egoist website, and the Style to get to a Gallery of sorts..

Well, in response to MeestahJ's disturbed blurb about the newest craze in caring for your unwanted offspring, I thought this would be another good one to "throw out" (Bddum Tsstst). For all you soon to be parents out there intent on living your lives as the Japanese government deems fit, here's another PSA from our friends at the DIET.

Turns out the government has decided AGAINST releasing a plan that encourages breast feeding and discourages the youth of the nation to watch so much TV and be constantly tied to cell phones and the internet.

As you walk through the valleys of that cursed womb you call home, fear not! Yours will no longer be a fate covered in maggots & rotting adult diapers! For years, you fought through the kicks to the belly, the botched hanger surgeries, the small quatities of ingested bleach. You got Moxy, kid.

For those of you out there who have already developed your eyes, give this a looksee:





So don't go booking that one-way ticket to the seedy dumpster behind the park just yet, kiddos. Instead, nuzzle up to those warm embriotic fluids and sleep to dream of the day when you're plucked out of the drop-box like a used copy of Mona Lisa Smile.
