Japanese TV

(a repost from my weblog)

When travelling, I spend a bit too much time just watching the TV – I love seeing all the different programmes, formats and adverts, even if I can’t understand them. As well as the cavalcade of youtube clips, you can watch some stations online – there’s an app called Livestation that has quite high quality feeds (including the Aizu Wakamatsu train station webcam), but often not enough users to sustain the p2p network, and best of all, KeyHoleTV, broadcasting many channels of Japanese TV live.

Of course, there’s the timezone issues, and finding understandable schedules is currently impossible. Luckily, my esteemed colleague Yumiko Tanaka has a few suggestions for this weekend – all times in JST (thanks, Yumiko!) -

    Although, there has been a significant change in the types of Televisions that are available in the market, but TV stands are still preferred by people and a separate space is preserved for them in the house. However, before purchasing a TV stand, there are a few factors that should be considered, which would ensure that you are making an informed purchase. The first consideration is the size of your television. Many a times people purchase stands that does not well appropriately with the size. Therefore, before purchasing any kind of TV stand, it is important to measure the width of your television. ;
