There were some users who saw Ustream and logged in Second Life.
Do you have android mobile? Then let's go to this bar! My friend's Kabayan opens the hangout "Bar android" for the android users.
There is a projector. And there are power supplies, so it's not necessary for you to mind battery consumption.
Gingerbread Cookie! If you can understand it, you are an android user definitely! :)
Only 19:00 - 23:30 on Monday every week opens here. Drinks and snacks are all 500 yen. And Japanese food set meal is 1,000 yen.
It's Kabayan's comment.
Who can make the place which can meet who interested in android?
When I met many guys at the bar at shibuya, I felt the power of 'real Place'.
At that time, My friend introduce his friend. He has a bar at shibuya.
He was looking for idea to be popular that bar.
So I tell to him my idea, then I opened 'bar android'.
Why I named my bar as 'bar android', because android os will use many
Situation and connect many people. This style may like my concept of bar.
This bar is not my bar actually. But people who interested in android will
Support us, I belive.
Please come to the bar and drink and talk to me!
Kabayan
But, this bar doesn't shut out people other than the android users. I went here yesterday though I'm iPhone4 user :)

SEIKIMA-II is one of the bands that I love most!! I am their fans from the grade-schooler.
Please check these video!
Their performance were wonderful. However, unfortunately the records were not popular so much. Because they had too strange appearance. The concept of this band was "Devil", but the music-style was the typical 80's metal which is not satanic metal. It confused Japanese music commentators.
*Special mention
The person who doesn't understand them, especially the foreigner said "They rip off the KISS!". It's wrong. The founder of this band has not been influenced from KISS, and they are more colorful than KISS.
The Japanese entertainment is mature now, and the personality of various artists are evaluated. But, it was not so 25 years ago. After all, they dissolved without being duly evaluated in 1999.
Their evaluations changed little by little after YouTube had appeared in 2005. Because overseas people saw videos of them on YouTube (Most videos were illegal upload...).
Now, they revive in commemoration of the 25th anniversary major debut this year (only in one year). They held gig this year in Dallas, Paris and Korea.
They now are in the middle of a Japanese tour. And they released iPhone apps today. The price is 1,500 yen.（Slightly expensive!） Artist's promotion apps are still few in Japan.
You can watch a profile of the band, profile all members of successive members, voices, images, data bases of the records and the band's histories etc.
In addition, there is the camera which you piled up their images and can take a photos.
Unfortunately there is only Japanese support, but the apps is sold in overseas AppStore.
"3D virtual world doesn't become popular in Japan. " "The Japanese uses only the mobile service", overseas people said in this way much more for some time. In addition, Japanese Medea reports that "Second Life is not good and no use" （still）. Are not there the Second Life users in Japan? No! There are heavy users of Second Life also in Japan.
"URIKO.in" is new media that send Second Life user's activity information. Especially, information on the art are abundant. The site is written only in Japanese, but there are a lot of beautiful screen shots.
Please check "URIKO.in" if you are interested in the Japanese Second Life news site.
