Ever wanted to know how Japanese live TV shows get their subtitles so quickly?

This video below shows a female in Tokyo who works as a typist, by typing subtitles in real time while the show’s on live.

 

 

It’s really amazing how fast and yet even surprisingly accurate these typists can be. The keyboard that they use really blew me into bits! Throw in some combos with the tiny keyboard and you get a whole sentence. And somehow the action of that reminds me of them playing the piano ^^;

Asian Poses

Found this site thought a link on Facebook which features a very detailed and demonstrative list of asian poses by people all around the world. Great site to visit if you’re totally bored, needs to think of new poses to pose or just want to look at the kawaii girls over at the site.

Unfortunately over here in Singapore, people often get accused of trying to hard to mimic these poses, pull these poses off or in simpler terms “acting cute”. I don’t really understand why people are so anal about it. Hey, it best the usual smiling at the camera!

Model for top picture is beautiful korean model Seo You-Jin. Some pictures of her with glasses below.

    The system sorta reminds me of journalist scribes. Because journalist have to take notes etc, they scribe down what people sale which is a lot faster than writing it word for word.

    One curious thing about this post is the unrelated picture above the video…:)

    I can do much better than that.

    Seems like their keyboard has lesser keys then our usual QWERTY. :P

    I wonder if these people play fighting games doing all those gigantic combos. LOL
