Oh waw, that still exists? I remember visiting Yamamoto-san at the Good Day office in Osaka something like 20 years ago, back when I was a Sylpheed user. I don't remember why they accepted the visit from some random French dude during work hours, but that was nice of them. I wonder if I still have the emails...

- hammyhavoc 4y agoMy favourite aspect of this is that it was organized via email. Super cool.
- glandium 4y agoNot only was it organized via email, but back then, I didn't have email in my pocket. I had to go to Internet cafes to access my email when I was on holiday in Japan. And sometimes it didn't work because my email was on a server in France, and I was in Japan, and Windows 9x was sending packets with a TTL too low for the many hops in between here and there. BTW, 20 years later, I still have the emails (found them). I just sent something along the lines of "I'm in Japan right now, I'll be in Osaka soon, can I come say hello". And the reply was essentially "Sure, when?". And they sent me pictures afterwards.
