Uno sviluppatore web, che da cinque anni risiede in Giappone, ha raccontato cosa è cambiato nel suo mestiere spostandosi là:
I frequently ride the train in-between rush hour. I do a lot of people watching then. People are open books of nonverbal queues, it’s so much fun. On Wednesday I counted three books among 46 people, six people dozing off and 37 handheld communication devices of some sort, across all ages.
The number of cell phone owners in Japan soared to nearly 110 million people last year. That’s 86% of the total population. Think of that in terms of Japan’s mass transit commuters with time to chill on the train; it’s a great opportunity to socialize and shop, two things Japan does well.
