If you get a black screen, it probably because they have stopped streaming or it is night time in Japan. Worked fine for me around 11 PM. Of coarse earlier will too. Also, you will be able to click some links that show as real objects within the painting. :thumbsup: http://fpw.toyota-digital.com/ http://www.facebook.com/events/220357884702542/ http://www.ustream.tv/embed/9718246 |

According to this link : http://www.ustream.tv/embed/9718246
They are offline right now. It is like 2:45 AM now in Japan, maybe that's why :/ |
Ok, maybe I'm just being thick, but I don't get the concept of this website at all...
|
hahaha that is awesome!

Hah, they made a typo. Now that they've finished there's a countdown until the Tokyo Motor Show. At the beginning of every minute, it says the production version of the FT86 II will be at the Tokyo Motor Show on December 30th. Yep, out by a month, haha.

There's a lot of people walking around the train station at 11:30PM on a monday night :P
|
I've had this up all day.. I feel kinda creepy. lol people are starting to go to work in Tokyo again.
|
^ lol I wonder if there's a sign to tell them they are being broadcasted on the internet lol. Can you imagine if we had a hidden camera somewhere on the street and some Japanese guy is watching us walk on the street.
|
I want to see some cute little Japanese girls start making out on screen but that hasn't happened. :( Some stupid cop likes to walk around in front of it though. Luckily I have two monitors so I just leave it up on one of them for occasional entertainment.
|
Lol the cop probably thinks it's actual graffiti or is suppose to guard it lol. As for Japanese girls kissing there it's probably not gonna happen cause their culture doesn't like public affection. Which is also why they have white people in their ads doing or posing provocatively. Well atleast that's what my Anthropology prof tells me.
