Where were you 9 years ago?

Sep

Tomorrow is the ninth anniversary of 9/11. I was in Japan at that time to attend one of the largest computer shows. We had a booth with other companies from Washington State.

We were actually stack there not knowing when we can fly back to the US. All the flights were canceled for a few days. The security was tight. When I got back to Seattle, there are military people with M16 on their shoulders.

That was the the day the air travel became very unfriendly. I wish we could get back to pre 9/11 era.

Honda Accord

I took delivery of 2011 Honda Accord from Lynnwood Honda, Rick Fonceca personally delivered the car this morning. Because Lynnwood Honda is the member of Seattle Executives Association (so as Pacific Software Publishing, Inc.), I did not have negotiate to get great deal. Thank you, Rick.

Now my BMW 645 goes out of warranty next year, I need to start thinking about another car. I love car shopping.

Right Brain, Left Brain.

Take a look at the image below and tell me which way she is turning.

If she is turning clock wise, you are right brain centric and vice versa. I saw her turning clockwise but after I found out I can see her turning another way, I can't see her turning clockwise anymore.

It is very interesting.

UNION BANK RECEPTION AT SAM

Sep

Tonight we were invited to UNION BANK's reception at Seattle Art Museum. There were more than 500 people attended this reception. UNION BANK is a subsidiary of Bank of Tokyo Mitsubishi. We had account with Bank of Tokyo Mitsubishi but they have closed the branch office in Seattle. So now we will be working with UNION BANK.

UNION BANK seems to be very committed to Pacific Northwest expansion. This was a very nice reception with good food and drink.

Not on the menu!

Sep

If you are a restaurant owner and you wanted to sell something over the others, you will have a SPECIAL on the menu. And it is safe to assume everything that you have for sale is on the menu. If you don't put something on the menu, you will not likely to sell the item not on the menu.

But when it comes to Internet and Computer technologies, there are so many thing the company like us can do, that it is almost impossible to create a menu that contain everything that we can provide. But it is our job to do so. Even the simple things like, we can sell and repair computers, must be on our menu. We of cause do that, but it is not so clear to everyone outside.

Also, having what we can provide clearly define what we cannot provide. That is very important too.

* The picture is our Japanese Language Advertisement that we are currently running in Southern California explaining what we do. We do not sell hardware in California. We provide web Hosting and Web Developments.

Twitter in Japan

Twitter is getting very popular in Japan. I have opened the Twitter Japanese account. My Japanese Bloguru post is automatically updating the Japanese Twitter account.

Is Twitter good for your business?

I don't know. But it is better to do something than doing nothing.
