Basically it translates your phrase from english to Japanese and back again, and again, until it doesn't changes. Seems computer translation has a way to go still.

Facebook Sushi Style
I visited a page on Facebook Japan. Now my facebook randomly looks like this.
Hhhmmmmm. Might be time to learn some Japanese.
Trademarks and Such
So I received an invitation to a dance party. They claim to be the one and only, even going so far as to trademark their name. I thought that was sweet so I looked up their trademark… and didn’t find it. False advertising? Maybe. Or maybe it is just the usually DJ spin. It still is a pretty crazy dance party, even if it isn’t trademarked.
Facebook Ads Gone Wrong
Oops. This ad popped up on Facebook the other day. Do they not know that I am a boy? Until facebook figures out how to match ads with the info they have about me, the ads are not going to be useful.
Great Response
This is really funny. A TechCrunch writer found out and made public how much money Zappos management made off the Amazon acquisition. Instead of getting mad, they decided to get even.
From the article
“It’s a great story for us whenever an entrepreneur makes a crazy amount of money and we get to tell the world about it. For the entrepreneur? Not so much. Hitherto unknown relatives, entrepreneurs seeking angel investments, money managers and supposed baby-mamas all come out of the woodwork with dollar signs in their eyes.
Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh and COO/CFO Alfred Lin have figured out a way to cope with everyone wanting their money: Giving everyone my email address and telling them I’m in charge of their investments.
To be fair, Hsieh told me he was going to do this. He even told me they’d make an investment decision based on my favorite pitch. I just thought he was kidding. Then, two nights ago I had dinner with a Los Angeles-based entrepreneur who had “a hilarious” story to tell me. It seemed a friend at one of the more prominent Southern California investment firms was hounding him for an intro to Sarah Lacy. Clearly, this made no sense since writers don’t generate wealth. We’re lucky to pay rent and have some left over for booze. “No, I need to talk to her about managing this guy Alfred’s money,” the money manager insisted.”
Great response.
