@PeterZeihan I got interested in some of your recent works. Does https://t.co/3OQn06hnRZ work to request you a talk/ presentation?

I updated! The exact number of municipalities was 264 / 1718 = 15.4%. However, it seems that 439 / 1902 = 23.1% when adding the ward of the big city.

Japanese Open Data Day saw approx. 60 localities participating this year. The popular hashtag is #OpenDataDay not #ODD18, for those who are interested.

[Tomoaki Watanabe @tomo_wt]

A prelim analysis by @tosseto of OD-practicing municipalities, using census and https://t.co/fXPKnklZSj data: 23.1% of 1902 municipalities doing OD, covering more than 53% of the population.

Some of OK Japan folks quite happy and proud to see the ODD logo, originally developed by @yuichiyazaki, now all over the world. We have seen Cambodia, Italy (Sicily), Germany, Argentina, Spain (Barcelona), Canada, and more. #OpenDataDay #ODD2018

FAQ for the new Swiss OD portal is in 4 languages - FR, EN, DE, & IT. Is Japan's difficulty to go even bilingual is an exception? #okcon

[Tomoaki Watanabe @tomo_wt]

another example of unexpected data reuse: truckometer in NZ, a traffic data useful to predict economic trends rather accurately. #OKCON

Prior to the 2009 amendment, ppl said it was covered mostly by "reproduction for private use" a limitation of copyright on art.30.

[Tomoaki Watanabe @tomo_wt]

Unauthorized downloading became illegal in JP by the 2009 copyright reform. Now some say there's a push for attaching it a penalty.

@gohsuket Not sure how to make of the "hacked" Op-Ed piece. I would have believed it if those "FACT"s were more believable...
