A new star in the blogospheric heavens



A potted plant at an internet cafe near Tokyo is surely set to become the world's most important blogger.


A university engineer who has been studying how to communicate with plants devised a sensor that measures bio-electric signals. These are converted into data by a computer next the plant and then translated into Japanese in the form of a blog.

The plant, Midori-San had this to say in its most recent entry: "It was cloudy today. It was a cold day."

Wow short and to the point and written with such style. Some people may think that this post is a litttle terse, yet it says far more in two short sentences than most bloggers do in two pages. Midori-San , I salute you!

For some reason the phrase "It is are not raining in Tokyo" will not stop rattling round my head now...

Well actually although we all talk about the weather non stop in real life not many blog about it continually. A niche blog perhaps?

I thinkm there is a wider market for Midori-San's wisdom!
