The Digital Home
Jose asked me about the "digital home" in Japan, I began to write from what I've seen so far, and when I saw a lot of nonsense ... I said ... just what I needed to restart the blog.
I think it reflects exactly what Japan is the world five months of being lost by Nara-ken. ---------
Here comes Japan,
For when the average Japanese spent a minimum of three hours stuck on the train to get to their jobs or studies, rather than collective entertainment ( and that is having a lot but good luck ..) and because the houses are 30 square meters large houses for Japanese media (in fact announced in the section "Manshions" in the newspapers), it is clear that everything has to be integrated. The unit is called ultimate phone, from here you can watch TV, listen to music, use of GPS, radio player, remote control TV, Japanese-English dictionary, image editor, canjis recognizer based on sampling of the camera, super zoom megalocámara built in, and even to read the manga more warm (in fact the Nintendo DS and it comes from a long-term), it is not strange that the phone is basic to life Japanese. In fact, many people have computers but only the used to write or surf the internet (a computer is considered a work tool but a tool of the household staff), so many times, the mobile phone to do the functions of personal computer.
... Consumer electronics DVD players have all kinds of features, and that hospital you an idea, my microwave is also a conventional oven that is able to make toast and all, on par with that wields a little music MIDI super horny at the end (but does esotambién washer, and garbage truck, not what you can not imagine).
basic ADSL connection you just hire a friend is 47MB! all at a price of 5,000 yen with the phone (so 5,000 pesetas). The phone uses technology 3G/CDMA almost since it was invented, and if you have phones connect to the Internet, you do not pay while you are browsing through the pages of the telephone company, you only pay for data downloads you make (ringtones, wallpapers, etc and this is where the business is in Japan, services and download pages.) The advantage of the phones is that they have an associated email account, and that makes everyone who has a phone, you have an email account, so everyone uses the e-mail (the market penetration is nearly 100% "? no Japanese phone with no phone or no Japanese, except the very elderly). Internet is no longer a cable to which you have to connect, and has become a fixture over the phone to learn when in Spain.
If this sum, it is rude to talk on the phone on trains and subways, you're everyone sending emails on trains, sailing, playing computer games or sleeping laptop, total, have so much time to waste traveling ... Regarding
houses because I think almost everyone I know has some kind of game console capable of doing a thousand things. But apart from a thousand consoles, or have appliances horny, and a computer if it comes to case ... if not for the small size of the houses here, we would be talking about any home the first world, neither more nor less. Actually I have not seen anything in the house home automation around here (that if we save the toilets that are able to wash your ass with hot water and a special dryer secartelocon).
street cars come with many TV screens in every seat and all passengers (including driver's personalized TV, which in Europe would be unthinkable.) Automatic cars are 99%, because you want a car that can not run if total from 80 kilometers per hour (also misleads much the fact that there are motorcars chochos a smaller scale and lower benefits, the truth more than anything the color differences in enrollment and accessories that incorporate GPS, etc. ..). Why
I talked about cars, trains and telephones rather than household?, Well because the Japanese just spend time at home, spend their time traveling and working, and then are antisocial at all (start therefore understand why they commit suicide, or why they have a paranoia of thirteen), and it comes down to that when they do nothing, take refuge at home watching or reading manga, listening to music, playing computer games or watching TV (cable very nerdy).
Devices that have (and since they do not have much space), are of advanced technology and have to perform more than one function, and only now understand the existence of the ipod or the lite versions of portable consoles. Are impulse buyers, so that a good marketing campaign can stoop to many Japanese to buy a product that will probably just be interested (a very common problem among young workers in middle age, they do not know where to spend their money no kidding, since barely make anything but work, because the company is like your family, only now understand that many children who know their father because that person you saw suit and comes home Sunday lunch, I've noticed when a colleague had given the PS3 because the person who bought it, I thought I bought a 60GB PS3, when I saw that was purchased was 20GB, and far from returning the product, which was presented unopened, and was purchased from 60BG.)
Now comes the paradox at such a technological world that anyone would drool fall, the Japanese media have no damn idea that serves all you have examples to kicks, as I had to teach many Japanese use their phones in Japan (and why I learned to learn with the method ... what happens to my phone if you click here?), the Japanese spend brutally technology. They have it, buy it with a thousand pijadas and possibilities, but then output that will take those products amounted to just 5%.
Finally, the digital home ... whether there may be, but you want something you do not use? Regarding the universal remote control from home ... Japan called for in the phone, but who cares, if just used trescientasmil three functions of the phone.
Oh by the way, I forgot an important finding, when you speak of Japan, as Westerners we are, we mean what we think erroneously that Japan is the setting for whole and I regret to tell you that here are the macro-cities of Osaka, Kyoto, Tokyo, etc, and then the real Japan, which is semi rural, not to say that it is at all.
I say, because of the geeks, the centers of robotics and stuff, only exist in the megalociudades, and many people think that whole Japan is at the same level of technology, but beware that this is a mirage. I'll tell you more clear, I live in the prefecture of Nara, and throughout there is no wretched nara computer store, or a single site I've seen that sell computers. The reality is that technology alone can buy one on these macro-cities, so that everything is concentrated there.
