I saw a new bank sign today. This shows how strong the Chinese economy is. I do not see any new Japanese bank opening beaches in Washington State.

A representative from our Japanese partner company has arrived for our shareholders and board of directors meeting tomorrow. It is great to welcome him to Seattle in such a good weather.

Wonderful English Sign

I saw this sign in Tokyo ... I cannot believe there is no single person who can correct this sign ... That means this sign might be intentionally made wrong. That's smart!!!

I see more and more food ruck everywhere. It is a very interesting business model and it may work for some Japanese food too.

This is today's image of Shorewood Heights (FKA Shorewood Apartment) in Mercer Island. This is where I incorporated Pacific Software Publishing, Inc. back in 1987.

No. I did not start PSP in a garage. I started in my apartment.

Startup Businesses

Old Amacon.com HQ Building

Seattle is a home for many startup businesses. That includes companies like Amazon.com, Starbucks, Costco. I sometime wonder if the bad weather in the winter (actually except for June to August) has to do with this.

No POS/Cash Register

Apr

I went to COACH outlet today and found that there is no more cash register at the store any more. They are using iPhone/iPad based device to scan and run your credit card. I don't know if that make payment process any faster but it is different. I think that is the way everything is moving.
