It was just a coincidence that I was in Tokyo last weekend. i went for the marathon, but there happened to be a seminar at Google Japan for You Tube partners. It was for Tokyo-based partners, but since I was in town, I got an invite.
It was very cool and I was finally able to meet some You Tubers I have been communicating with for years. It was a whos who of the You Tube Japan scene!
A few days ago "ericsurf6", a very popular You Tube personality and Japan-based vlogger posted a challenge. In his video, he quickly picked up 10 round objects from a plate with chopsticks and placed them into a bowl. He challenged viewers to do a similar thing. I wanted to get a little more creative.
That video is posted on my jlandkev You Tube channel...I have 2 channels!
In other, non-chopstick related news, the Japanese government and parliament has been dissolved. After a lot of pressure and bickering, Japanese Prime Minister Taro Aso dissolved parliament yesterday and there will be an election in August. Wow, the Japanese have federal elections almost as often as we Canadians do! Nothing says, "I love you", like wasting tax payers money!
