Today is Wednesday that means Thai Truck for Lunch in Meguro. I received some bad news from my company yesterday, Nokia has decided to close the Nokia Japan office. Ontop of that the Mountain Dew has also been removed from the 100 Yen vending machine near the office. It's just as well I suppose since I don't know how much longer I'll be coming to the office. (If you know of any job openings, I'd appreciate if you let me know via Vox private message.)
Without further delay here are this week's Thai Truck photos (they maybe one of the last Thai Truck photo sets).
Photos taken with the Nokia N97.
明日にはとうとう、我が小森ゼミに二期生が入ってくるようです。
今回は男子が4人居ると言うことで、一安心です。
でも20人になってしまったら上手く回るでしょうか、、、
少し不安ですが、新しい仲間が増えることは非常に楽しみですね♪
卒業設計頑張らねば!!!
First, we're happy to announce that the team has identified and fixed the issue with the YouTube conduit; you can now find and add videos from YouTube to your library and posts. As always, thanks for your patience!
The other news we have today is about a new addition to the Six Apart family: TypePad Micro, a new free level of TypePad that is streamlined for microblogging. We see a new form of blogging emerging that lives between the quick status updates of Twitter and Facebook and the long-form posts of "classic" blogging; TypePad Micro is designed to meet that need. You can read more about TypePad Micro in Chris Alden's post on the Everything TypePad blog.
A lot of the new capabilities we've added to TypePad this year were actually inspired by some of the best things about Vox: favoriting, member profiles, a dashboard to follow other bloggers, and easy ways to post content from other social media sites. But the things that make Vox different from TypePad are still there: Vox has always been -- and still is -- the best place for "friends and family" blogging, where you're in control over who sees what. TypePad, on the other hand, is built for the blogger who wants, no, craves, attention.
Do you have a passion or interest you want to share with people beyond your Vox neighborhood? If so, we'd love it if you tried out TypePad Micro. Maybe you've always wanted to start that obsessive blog that's just about waffle restaurants. Or want a place to share videos of your favorite band (Jonas Brothers, anyone? Anyone? ...). TypePad Micro's great for those topic-specific blogs. Take it for a spin and let us know what you think.
On the Vox front, our designers are working on some cool new themes (coming soon!). We'd also love to hear your thoughts about where we should take Vox in the coming year. What are the key things you'd like to see for Vox? If you've had a chance to use TypePad this year, what are the features there that we should bring over to Vox? And, if you're thinking big thoughts, how could we connect the Vox and TypePad communities in order to bring together bloggers and their shared passions? Your feedback is really important to us, so please leave a comment here, or shoot me a message.
And again, thanks for your patience as we found and fixed the YouTube bug!
