Digital cameras are made in a wide range of sizes, prices and capabilities. The majority are camera phones, operated as a mobile application through the cellphone menu. Professional photographers and many amateurs use larger, more expensive digital single-lens reflex cameras (DSLR) for their greater versatility. Between these extremes lie digital compact cameras and bridge digital cameras that "bridge" the gap between amateur and professional cameras. Specialized cameras including multispectral imaging equipment and astrographs continue to serve the scientific, military, medical and other special purposes for which digital photography was invented.
Subcompact with lens assembly retracted
Compact cameras are designed to be tiny and portable and are particularly suitable for casual and "snapshot" uses. Hence, they are also called point-and-shoot cameras. The smallest, generally less than 20 mm thick, are described as subcompacts or "ultra-compacts" and some are nearly credit card size.[2]
Most, apart from ruggedized or water-resistant models, incorporate a retractable lens assembly allowing a thin camera to have a moderately long focal length and thus fully exploit an image sensor larger than that on a camera phone, and a mechanized lens cap to cover the lens when retracted. The retracted and capped lens is protected from keys, coins and other hard objects, thus making it a thin, pocketable package. Subcompacts commonly have one lug and a short wrist strap which aids extraction from a pocket, while thicker compacts may have two lugs for attaching a neck strap.
Compact cameras are usually designed to be easy to use, sacrificing advanced features and picture quality for compactness and simplicity; images can usually only be stored using lossy compression (JPEG). Most have a built-in flash usually of low power, sufficient for nearby subjects. Live preview is almost always used to frame the photo. Most have limited motion picture capability. Compacts often have macro capability and zoom lenses but the zoom range is usually less than for bridge and DSLR cameras. Generally a contrast-detect autofocus system, using the image data from the live preview feed of the main imager, focuses the lens.
Typically, these cameras incorporate a nearly silent leaf shutter into their lenses.
For lower cost and smaller size, these cameras typically use image sensors with a diagonal of approximately 6 mm, corresponding to a crop factor around 6. This gives them weaker low-light performance, greater depth of field, generally closer focusing ability, and smaller components than cameras using larger sensors.
Starting in 2011, some compact digital cameras can take 3D still photos. These 3D compact stereo cameras can capture 3D panoramic photos for play back on a 3D TV.[3] Some of these are rugged and waterproof, and some have GPS, compass, barometer and altimeter. [4]
Main article: Bridge camera
Bridge are higher-end digital cameras that physically and ergonomically resemble DSLRs and share with them some advanced features, but share with compacts the use of a fixed lens and a small sensor. Like compacts, most use live preview to frame the image. Their autofocus uses the same contrast-detect mechanism, but many bridge cameras have a manual focus mode, in some cases using a separate focus ring, for greater control. They originally "bridged" the gap between affordable point-and-shoot cameras and the then unaffordable earlier digital SLRs.
Due to the combination of big physical size but a small sensor, many of these cameras have very highly specified lenses with large zoom range and fast aperture, partially compensating for the inability to change lenses. On some, the lens qualifies as superzoom. To compensate for the lesser sensitivity of their small sensors, these cameras almost always include an image stabilization system to enable longer handheld exposures.
These cameras are sometimes marketed as and confused with digital SLR cameras since the appearance is similar. Bridge cameras lack the reflex viewing system of DSLRs, are usually fitted with fixed (non-interchangeable) lenses (although some have a lens thread to attach accessory wide-angle or telephoto converters), and can usually take movies with sound. The scene is composed by viewing either the liquid crystal display or the electronic viewfinder (EVF). Most have a longer shutter lag than a true dSLR, but they are capable of good image quality (with sufficient light) while being more compact and lighter than DSLRs. High-end models of this type have comparable resolutions to low and mid-range DSLRs. Many of these cameras can store images in a Raw image format, or processed and JPEG compressed, or both. The majority have a built-in flash similar to those found in DSLRs.
In bright sun, the quality difference between a good compact camera and a digital SLR is minimal but bridgecams are more portable, cost less and have a similar zoom ability to dSLR. Thus a Bridge camera may better suit outdoor daytime activities, except when seeking professional-quality photos.[5]
In low light conditions and/or at ISO equivalents above 800, most bridge cameras (or megazooms) lack in image quality when compared to even entry level DSLRs. However, they do have one major advantage: their much larger depth of field due to the small sensor as compared to a DSLR, allowing larger apertures with shorter exposure times.
A 3D Photo Mode was introduced in 2011, whereby the camera automatically takes a second image from a slightly different perspective and provides a standard .MPO file for stereo display. [6]
[edit]Mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera
Main article: Mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera
In late 2008, a new type of camera emerged, combining the larger sensors and interchangeable lenses of DSLRs with the live-preview viewing system of compact cameras, either through an electronic viewfinder or on the rear LCD. These are simpler and more compact than DSLRs due to the removal of the mirror box, and typically emulate the handling and ergonomics of either DSLRs or compacts. The system is used by Micro Four Thirds, borrowing components from the Four Thirds DSLR system.
[edit]Digital single lens reflex cameras
Cutaway of an Olympus E-30 DSLR
Main article: Digital single-lens reflex camera
Digital single-lens reflex cameras (DSLRs) are digital cameras based on film single-lens reflex cameras (SLRs). They take their name from their unique viewing system, in which a mirror reflects light from the lens through a separate optical viewfinder. At the moment of exposure the mirror flips out of the way, making a distinctive "clack" sound and allowing light to fall on the imager.
Since no light reaches the imager during framing, autofocus is accomplished using specialized sensors in the mirror box itself. Most 21st century DSLRs also have a "live view" mode that emulates the live preview system of compact cameras, when selected.
These cameras have much larger sensors than the other types, typically 18 mm to 36 mm on the diagonal (crop factor 2, 1.6, or 1). This gives them superior low-light performance, less depth of field at a given aperture, and a larger size.
They make use of interchangeable lenses; each major DSLR manufacturer also sells a line of lenses specifically intended to be used on their cameras. This allows the user to select a lens designed for the application at hand: wide-angle, telephoto, low-light, etc. So each lens does not require its own shutter, DSLRs use a focal-plane shutter in front of the imager, behind the mirror.
Main article: Rangefinder camera#Digital rangefinder
A rangefinder is a user-operated optical mechanism to measure subject distance once widely used on film cameras. Most digital cameras measure subject distance automatically using electro-optical techniques, but it is not customary to say that they have a rangefinder.
[edit]Line-scan camera systems
A line-scan camera is a camera device containing a line-scan image sensor chip, and a focusing mechanism. These cameras are almost solely used in industrial settings to capture an image of a constant stream of moving material. Unlike video cameras, line-scan cameras use a single row of pixel sensors, instead of a matrix of them. Data coming from the line-scan camera has a frequency, where the camera scans a line, waits, and repeats. The data coming from the line-scan camera is commonly processed by a computer, to collect the one-dimensional line data and to create a two-dimensional image. The collected two-dimensional image data is then processed by image-processing methods for industrial purposes.
Further information: Rotating line camera
Many devices include digital cameras built into or integrated into them. For example, mobile phones often include digital cameras; those that do are known as camera phones. Other small electronic devices (especially those used for communication) such as PDAs, laptops and BlackBerry devices often contain an integral digital camera, and most 21st century camcorders can also make still pictures.
Due to the limited storage capacity and general emphasis on convenience rather than image quality, almost all these integrated or converged devices store images in the lossy but compact JPEG file format.
Mobile phones incorporating digital cameras were introduced in Japan in 2001 by J-Phone. In 2003 camera phones outsold stand-alone digital cameras, and in 2006 they outsold all film-based cameras and digital cameras combined. These camera phones reached a billion devices sold in only five years, and by 2007 more than half of the installed base of all mobile phones were camera phones. Sales of separate cameras peaked in 2008. [7]
Integrated cameras tend to be at the very lowest end of the scale of digital cameras in technical specifications, such as resolution, optical quality, and ability to use accessories. With rapid development, however, the gap between mainstream compact digital cameras and camera phones is closing, and high-end camera phones are competitive with low-end stand-alone digital cameras of the same generation.
A Canon WP-1 waterproof 35 mm film camera
Waterproof digital cameras are digital cameras that can make pictures underwater. Waterproof housings have long been made but they cost almost as the cameras. Many waterproof digital cameras are shockproof and resistant to low temperatures; one of them is Canon PowerShot D10, one of the first underwater digital cameras.
These cameras become very popular during the holiday season, because many people want to save the best moments from their holidays at the seaside. Waterproof watches and mobile phones were produced earlier. Most makers of digital cameras also produce waterproof ones and every year they launch at least one new model, for example Sony, Olympus, Canon, Fuji.
Healthways Mako Shark, an early waterproof camera,[8] was launched in 1958 and cost around 25 dollars. It was a huge camera and pictures were black and white.

Due to the nature of a digital camera, they need a lot of voltage and also need to keep good battery long periods of inactivity digital camera rechargeable batteries to a big hit, many current digital camera has a flash, may also make a short film, the two characteristics is very good, but can drain battery two times normal speed, photo shooting.
Most people are familiar with basic rechargeable battery, but the key to finding a good a doctor to give your digital camera is to look at the battery material, how will charge, and how long will the cost in use and sitting on the shelf or in the digital camera.
A little I look in my purchase any digital camera I buy is to ensure that there is a common battery size. The reason is, no matter how you plan a photo shoot, things happen, you may have to resort to the old alkaline batteries solve your problems, then. Panasonic battery my first choice is a rechargeable battery, but you never know, this is a very good thing can find a new set of batteries.
There are several important factors to consider, rechargeable batteries is the best. The first is the amount of voltage, followed by long time, then the battery of the time; Four is charge (how long shelf life will be held responsible for the storage battery).
Here are a series of typical rechargeable batteries and their voltage output:
Ni-Cad rechargeable battery, 12 volts
Nickel metal hydride rechargeable batteries-1.2 to 1.5
Ni-ZN rechargeable batteries-160 volts
Standard alkalines is 1.5 volts
Also have a level a reference number of energy storage, from the ability to represent called milli ampere hour. These level general fleeing to 2100 from 750 from is high, the more the number of the battery capacity (higher digital better).
The Ni-Cad and nimh most common, almost every major brand battery multiple versions. The latest technology is Ni-ZN are excellent storage capacity and long shelf life. Many types of rechargeable batteries can be charging many times, but they didn't mention that drop down power amount of recharges x.
And this is the real factors to consider. Let us say that if you find new battery you can use about 100 photos before they go to the south. Recharges Numbers increase, reduce many pictures. Some can only continue to before they start, recharges loose the ability to completely costs. Clever cost is still good savings from an ordinary AA alkaline battery cost $1.15 and the comparable charge is $2.50, according to the figures from $5.00.
Recent Ni-ZN cost about $5 each request and take over 500 recharges in any losses before the injury charge ability. But they also play more voltage so for example your flash recycling half the time to complete the normal alkaline batteries. If you have 100 threw a set of alkaline, you should get at least 175 vote of Ni-ZN are the same size. Plus storage life N-ZN than any other choice.
Rapid turnover a flash can be a big problem, because it is a very painful, but when photographs in the interior, need to wait for two minutes of the flash is full of power. Or, if you are shooting a series of short a minute video and ran out of the juice in the middle is not a good thing.
So, based on the pricing and ability, if you can recharge the battery is more than 500 times more the highest price, they use more cheap long-term development. If they hold up close to claim 500 cost, well, you can do the math. This is a no brainer, Ni-ZN provide more voltage, better life, and more fees each battery.

1, about the trickle charge, rapid charging and stable battery charging algorithm
According to the energy requirements of the final application, a battery may contain up to 4 lithium ion or lithium polymer battery core, its configuration will have a variety of change, at the same time with a mainstream power adapter: direct adapter, USB interface or car charger. Remove the core quantity, core configuration or power adapter type difference, the battery has the same charge characteristics. So they charge algorithm. Lithium ion and li-ion polymer battery best charging algorithm can divided into three phases: trickle charge, rapid charging and stable charge.
Advanced battery charger with additional security function normally. For example, if the core temperature exceeds the given window, usually 0 ℃-45 ℃, charge will be suspended.
Remove some very low-end equipment, now on the market/li-ion polymer lithium ion battery solutions are integrated with the outer components or, in accordance with the characteristics of the charging to charge, this is not just to get better effect charge, but also for safety.
LTC4097 can be used to exchange adapter or USB power supply for single quarter/polymer lithium ion battery. Figure 1 for double input 1.2 A lithium battery charger LTC4097 schemes. It USES constant current/constant voltage algorithm charging, from exchange adapter power charge, programmable filling up to 1.2 electric current A, and with USB power can be as high as 1 A, at the same time, automatic detection in each input voltage whether there. This device also provide USB the current limit. Applications include PDA, MP3 players, digital camera, light portable medical and test equipment and big color cellular phone. The performance characteristics: no external micro controller charging termination; The input power automatic detection and choice; Through the resistance from the exchange of charging adapter input can be as high as 1.2 A programming charge current; The resistance of programmable USB charging current is up to 1 A; 100% or 20% USB charging current set; The input power output and existing bias NTC (VNTC) pin as a 120 mA drive ability; NTC thermistors input (NTC) pin for temperature qualified charged; Pre-settings battery voltage with floating plus or minus 0.6% accuracy; Thermal regulation maximize charge rate and free hot air LTC4097 can be used to exchange adapter or USB power supply for single quarter/polymer lithium ion battery. The use of constant current/constant voltage algorithm charging, from exchange adapter power charge, programmable filling up to 1.2 electric current A, and with USB power can be as high as 1 A, at the same time, automatic detection in each input voltage whether there. This device also provide USB the current limit. Applications include PDA, MP3 players, digital camera, light portable medical and test equipment and big color cellular phone.
2, lithium ion/polymer battery scheme
Lithium ion/polymer battery charge scheme for different number of core, core configuration, and power types are different. At present mainly have three main charging scheme: linear, Buck (step-down) switch and SEPIC (booster and step-down) switch.
When the input voltage in big with the charger with sufficient clearance of core after opening voltage, it is linear scheme, especially 1.0 C fast charging current than 1 A big too much. For example, MP3 players usually only one core, capacity from 700 to 1500 mAh differ, full charge voltage is open 4.2 V. MP3 player power is usually the AC/DC adapter or USB interface, the output is the rule of 5 V; At this time, the linear scheme is the most simple, most charger of the efficiency of the scheme. Figure 2 shows for lithium ion/polymer battery solution linear scheme, basic structure and linear voltage neat device.
MAX8677A is double input USB/AC adapter linear charger, built-in Smart Power Selector, used for rechargeable single quarter by Li + batteries portable devices. The charger integration of the battery and the external power source and load switch charging all the power switch, so that no external MOSFET. MAX8677A ideal used in portable devices, such as smart phones, PDA, portable media players, GPS navigation equipment, digital camera, and digital cameras.
MAX8677A can work in independent USB and the power input AC adapter or two input either one of the input. When connecting external power supply, intelligent power source selector allows the system not connect battery or can and depth discharge battery connection. Intelligent power source selector will automatically switch to the battery system load, use the system did not use the input power supply parts for battery, make full use of limited USB and adapter power supply input. All the needed electric current detection circuit, including the integration of the power switch, all integration in the piece. DC input current highest limit can be adjusted to 2 A and DC and USB input all can support 100 mA, 500 mA, and USB hung mode. Charge current can be adjusted to as high as 1.5 A, thus support wide range of battery capacitive. Other features include MAX8677A thermal regulation, over-voltage protection, charging status and fault output, power supply good surveillance, battery thermistors surveillance, and charging timer. MAX8677A using save a space, hot enhanced, 4 mm x 4 mm, 24 of the pins TQFN encapsulation, regulations, work in exceptional temperature range (40 ~ + 85 ℃).
2.2 Buck (step-down) switch scheme
When A 1.0 C of the charging current more than 1 A, or the input voltage of the core than with high voltage open many, Buck or step-down plan is A better choice. For example, based on the hard drive in the PMP, often use single core lithium ion battery, the full of open is 4.2 V voltage, capacity from 1200 to 2400 mAh range. And now PMP is usually use the car kit to charge, its output voltage in a 9 V to 16 between V. In the input voltage and battery voltage is the voltage difference between high (minimum 4.8 V) will make linear scheme lowers efficiency. This kind of low efficiency, plus more than 1.2 A 1 C fast charging electric current, have serious heat dissipation problems. To avoid this kind of situation, will the Buck scheme. Figure 3 for lithium ion/polymer battery charger scheme Buck diagram, basic structure with Buck (step-down) switching voltage regulators completely the same.
2.3 SEPIC (booster and step-down) switch scheme
In some use of three or four lithium ion/polymer core series equipments, charger of the input voltage is not always greater than the battery voltage. For example, laptop computers use 3 core lithium ion battery, full charge voltage is open 12.6 V (4.2 V x3), capacity is 1800 mAh to 3600 mAh from. Power supply input or output voltage is 1 6 V AC/DC adapter, or is car kit, the output voltage in a 9 V to 16 between V. Apparently, the linear and Buck solutions are not for this group of batteries. This is about to use SEPIC scheme, it can in the output voltage is higher than when the battery voltage, can be in the output voltage less than when the battery.
3, and power detection algorithm is proposed
Many portable products use voltage measurements to estimate the remaining battery power, but the battery voltage and surplus power relationship but will with the discharge rate, temperature and battery aging degree of change, make this kind of method can top 50% margin of error. The market for longer to use product demand unceasingly strengthens, so the system design personnel need more accurate solution. Use capacity check plan come to measure battery or consumption of electricity, will be in a wide range of application power to provide more accurate estimate of the battery power.
3.1 power detection algorithm is one of the examples of application, function complete list, double the battery portable battery application design
The battery circuit description. Figure 4 (a) can be used for identification of IC functions with typical application circuit batteries. According to the use of IC testing program is different, the battery needs to have at least three to four outside the terminal.
VCC and BAT pins will even to the battery voltage, so that for, C power and the battery voltage measurement. The battery is connected a grounding resistance smaller detection resistors, let capacity check meter high impedance SRP and SRN input can monitor sensor resistance on both ends of the voltage. Through testing the current flows through a resistor can be used to judge the battery or release the amount of electricity. Designers choose detection resistance value must be considered when resistance on both ends of the voltage can't more than 100 mV, low resistance may be more hours in current errors. Circuit board layout must ensure that SRP and SRN to testing from as close as possible to the connection of the resistor sensor resistance end; In other words, they should be the Kelvin attachment.
HDQ pin need external and resistors, this resistance should be located the host or the main application, such capacity check plan to the battery and portable devices when sleep function enable connection broken. Advice and resistance choose 10 k Ω.
Once the battery through the appraisal, bq26150 will issue commands to ensure that the host and quantity test plan of material lines between normal communication. When the battery connection interruption or to connect, the whole the identification process will be repeated again.
Host to be able to read capacity check plan of variable voltage measurement battery, to make sure the end of discharging threshold and charging terminate threshold. As for the remaining state power (RemainingStateofCapacity), do not need to read can use directly.
The above bq2650x and bq27x00 etc capacity check plan provides the battery manufacturer a simple to use options, this scheme L [just measuring battery voltage to be precise, so these capacity check plan can be applied to various battery framework, and can support the battery identification and double the battery application '
3.2 power detection algorithm is an example of applications another, can apply to all kinds of general voltmeter new IC.
Today's many manufacturers can provide a variety of voltmeter IC,, the user can choose the suitable function device, to optimize the product price. Use voltmeter measurement of storage battery parameters, the separate architecture allows users in the host custom power measurement algorithm within. Eliminating embedded processor battery cost. On this to Dallase semicconductor company called cases of DS2762 chip for typical analysis. A new separate voltmeter IC, its structure see chart 5 (a) below.
DS2762 is a single quarter of lithium battery voltmeter and protection circuit, integrated into a tiny 2.46 mm x 2.74 mm inversion of packaging. Due to internal integration for power detection of high precise resistance, this device is very save a space. It is the small size and incomparable high level of integration, for mobile phone battery and other similar handheld products, such as PDA, etc, are all very ideal. Integrated protection circuit continuously monitoring the battery voltage, over voltage and flow fault (charging or discharge period). Different from the independent protection IC, DS2762 allow main processor surveillance/control protection FET conduction state, such, can DS2762 through the protection of the power system and the control circuit implementation. DS2762 can also charge a battery consumption has depth, when the battery voltage within three V, provide a limit of the charging current recovery path.
DS2762 accurate monitoring battery current, voltage and temperature, the dynamic range and resolution of common satisfy any mobile communication product testing standards. The measurement of current for internally generated when the integral, realize the power measurement. Through the real-time, continuous automatic disorders correct, the precision of power measurement can be increased. The built-in measuring resistance due to eliminate manufacturing process and temperature and cause resistance change, further improve the precision of the voltmeter. Important data stored in 32 bytes, can add the lock EEPROM; 16 bytes of SRAM are used to keep dynamic data. And DS2762 all communication all through the 1-Wire, more communication interface node, minimize the battery and the connection to the host. Its main features for; Single quarter of lithium battery protector; High precision current (power measurement), voltage and temperature measurement; Optional integrated 25 m Ω measuring resistance, each DS2762 after fine-tuning alone; 0 V battery restore charge; 32 bytes can lock EEPROM, 16 bytes SRAM, 64 a ROM;
1-Wire, node, digital communication interface; Support more battery power management, and through the protection system control FET power; Dormancy mode power supply current only 2 µ A (most); Work mode power supply current for 90 µ A (most); 2.46 mm x 2.74 mm inversion of packaging or 16 feet SSOP package led, and both are can choose with or without detection resistance; After has with e

The faster a computer goes, the more likely is to have Linux at its heart. The most recent Top500 list of supercomputers shows that, if anything, Linux is becoming even more popular at computing’s high end.
In the latest Top500 Supercomputer list, you’ll find when you dig into the supercomputer statistics that Linux runs 457 of the world’s fastest computers. That’s 91.4%. Linux is followed by Unix, with 30 or 6%; mixed operating systems with 11 supercomputers, 2.2%. In the back of the line, you’ll find OpenSolaris and BSD with 1 computer and–oh me, oh my–Windows also with just 1 supercomputer to its credit. That’s a drop from 4 in the last supercomputer round up in June.
Digging deeper, we find that various customized Linux distributions account for 414 of the supercomputers. AIX, IBM’s house brand of Unix, takes a distant second place in individual operating system distributions. It’s followed by various versions of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) and a variety of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) variants including the RHEL clone CentOS. Compute Node Linux is the last significant solo Linux distribution on the list.
Other operating systems that just make the list includes Oracle’s all but dead OpenSolaris with one entry. The sole Windows entry, Windows HPC 2008, placed 58th.
So, while Linux has only a minute share of the desktop, a big chunk of the server market, is the platform for most Web servers, when it comes to one arena: the fastest of the fast, supercomputers, Linux absolutely rules.
Too big to fail

I was at home the other night inth middle of my dinner when the phone rang.
ME:Hello.
ME:Thie is AT&T,
ME:Is this AT&T.?
AT&T:Yes! This is AT&T, may I speak to Mr.Byron, please?
ME:OK, hold on.
At this point I put the phone down for a solid 5 minutes thinking that, surely, this person would have hung up the phone. I ate my salad. Much to my surprise, when I picked up the receiver, they were still waiting,

AT&T:What are you talking about?
ME:You said you'd give me 10 cents a minute, 24 horus a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Thats comes to $144 per day, $1008 per week and $52,560 per year, I'm just interested in knowing how you will be making payment.
AT&T:Oh, no sir. I didn't mean we'd be peying you, You pay us 10 cents a minute.
ME:Wait a minutes. how do you figure that by saying that you'll give me 10 cents a minute, that I'll give YOU 10 cents a minute? Is this some kind of subliminal telemarketing scheme? I've read about things like this in the Enquirer, you know.
AT&T:No, sur, we are offering 10 cents a minute for
ME:THERE YOU GO AGAIN! Can I speak to supervisor please?
AT&T:Sir, I don't think that necessary.
ME:I insist on speaking to supervisor!
AT&T:Yes, Mr.Byron. Pleas hold.
At this point, I begin trying to finish my dinner.
ME:Yeah.
SUPERVISOR:I understand you are not quite understanding our 10 cents a minute program.
ME:is This AT&T?
SUPERVISOR:Yes, sir, it sure is.
ME:(I had to swallow before I choked on my food, It was all I could do to suppress my laughter and I had to be Careful not to produce a snort.) No, actually, I was just waiting for someone to get back to me so that I could sign up fo the plan.
SUPERVISOR:Ok, no problem, I'll transfer you back to the person who was helping you.
ME:Thank you.
I was on hold once again and managed a few more monthfuls. I need to end this conversation. Suddenly, there was an aggravated but polite voice at the other end of the phone.
AT&T:Hello, Mr.Byron, I understand that you are interested in sighning up for our plan?
ME:No, but I was wondering - do you have that "Friend and Family" thing because I'm an only child and I'd really like to have a little brother...
When the diesel generators were gone, the reactor operators switched to emergency battery power. The batteries were designed as one of the backups to the backups, to provide power for cooling the core for 8 hours. And they did.
Within the 8 hours, another power source had to be found and connected to the power plant. The power grid was down due to the earthquake. The diesel generators were destroyed by the tsunami. So mobile diesel generators were trucked in.
This is where things started to go seriously wrong. The external power generators could not be connected to the power plant (the plugs did not fit). So after the batteries ran out, the residual heat could not be carried away any more.
At this point the plant operators begin to follow emergency procedures that are in place for a “loss of cooling event”. It is again a step along the “Depth of Defense” lines. The power to the cooling systems should never have failed completely, but it did, so they “retreat” to the next line of defense. All of this, however shocking it seems to us, is part of the day-to-day training you go through as an operator, right through to managing a core meltdown.
It was at this stage that people started to talk about core meltdown. Because at the end of the day, if cooling cannot be restored, the core will eventually melt (after hours or days), and the last line of defense, the core catcher and third containment, would come into play.
But the goal at this stage was to manage the core while it was heating up, and ensure that the first containment (the Zircaloy tubes that contains the nuclear fuel), as well as the second containment (our pressure cooker) remain intact and operational for as long as possible, to give the engineers time to fix the cooling systems.
Because cooling the core is such a big deal, the reactor has a number of cooling systems, each in multiple versions (the reactor water cleanup system, the decay heat removal, the reactor core isolating cooling, the standby liquid cooling system, and the emergency core cooling system). Which one failed when or did not fail is not clear at this point in time.
So imagine our pressure cooker on the stove, heat on low, but on. The operators use whatever cooling system capacity they have to get rid of as much heat as possible, but the pressure starts building up. The priority now is to maintain integrity of the first containment (keep temperature of the fuel rods below 2200°C), as well as the second containment, the pressure cooker. In order to maintain integrity of the pressure cooker (the second containment), the pressure has to be released from time to time. Because the ability to do that in an emergency is so important, the reactor has 11 pressure release valves. The operators now started venting steam from time to time to control the pressure. The temperature at this stage was about 550°C.
This is when the reports about “radiation leakage” starting coming in. I believe I explained above why venting the steam is theoretically the same as releasing radiation into the environment, but why it was and is not dangerous. The radioactive nitrogen as well as the noble gases do not pose a threat to human health.
At some stage during this venting, the explosion occurred. The explosion took place outside of the third containment (our “last line of defense”), and the reactor building. Remember that the reactor building has no function in keeping the radioactivity contained. It is not entirely clear yet what has happened, but this is the likely scenario: The operators decided to vent the steam from the pressure vessel not directly into the environment, but into the space between the third containment and the reactor building (to give the radioactivity in the steam more time to subside). The problem is that at the high temperatures that the core had reached at this stage, water molecules can “disassociate” into oxygen and hydrogen – an explosive mixture. And it did explode, outside the third containment, damaging the reactor building around. It was that sort of explosion, but inside the pressure vessel (because it was badly designed and not managed properly by the operators) that lead to the explosion of Chernobyl. This was never a risk at Fukushima. The problem of hydrogen-oxygen formation is one of the biggies when you design a power plant (if you are not Soviet, that is), so the reactor is build and operated in a way it cannot happen inside the containment. It happened outside, which was not intended but a possible scenario and OK, because it did not pose a risk for the containment.
So the pressure was under control, as steam was vented. Now, if you keep boiling your pot, the problem is that the water level will keep falling and falling. The core is covered by several meters of water in order to allow for some time to pass (hours, days) before it gets exposed. Once the rods start to be exposed at the top, the exposed parts will reach the critical temperature of 2200 °C after about 45 minutes. This is when the first containment, the Zircaloy tube, would fail.
And this started to happen. The cooling could not be restored before there was some (very limited, but still) damage to the casing of some of the fuel. The nuclear material itself was still intact, but the surrounding Zircaloy shell had started melting. What happened now is that some of the byproducts of the uranium decay – radioactive Cesium and Iodine – started to mix with the steam. The big problem, uranium, was still under control, because the uranium oxide rods were good until 3000 °C. It is confirmed that a very small amount of Cesium and Iodine was measured in the steam that was released into the atmosphere.
It seems this was the “go signal” for a major plan B. The small amounts of Cesium that were measured told the operators that the first containment on one of the rods somewhere was about to give. The Plan A had been to restore one of the regular cooling systems to the core. Why that failed is unclear. One plausible explanation is that the tsunami also took away / polluted all the clean water needed for the regular cooling systems.
The water used in the cooling system is very clean, demineralized (like distilled) water. The reason to use pure water is the above mentioned activation by the neutrons from the Uranium: Pure water does not get activated much, so stays practically radioactive-free. Dirt or salt in the water will absorb the neutrons quicker, becoming more radioactive. This has no effect whatsoever on the core – it does not care what it is cooled by. But it makes life more difficult for the operators and mechanics when they have to deal with activated (i.e. slightly radioactive) water.
But Plan A had failed – cooling systems down or additional clean water unavailable – so Plan B came into effect. This is what it looks like happened:
In order to prevent a core meltdown, the operators started to use sea water to cool the core. I am not quite sure if they flooded our pressure cooker with it (the second containment), or if they flooded the third containment, immersing the pressure cooker. But that is not relevant for us.
The point is that the nuclear fuel has now been cooled down. Because the chain reaction has been stopped a long time ago, there is only very little residual heat being produced now. The large amount of cooling water that has been used is sufficient to take up that heat. Because it is a lot of water, the core does not produce sufficient heat any more to produce any significant pressure. Also, boric acid has been added to the seawater. Boric acid is “liquid control rod”. Whatever decay is still going on, the Boron will capture the neutrons and further speed up the cooling down of the core.
The plant came close to a core meltdown. Here is the worst-case scenario that was avoided: If the seawater could not have been used for treatment, the operators would have continued to vent the water steam to avoid pressure buildup. The third containment would then have been completely sealed to allow the core meltdown to happen without releasing radioactive material. After the meltdown, there would have been a waiting period for the intermediate radioactive materials to decay inside the reactor, and all radioactive particles to settle on a surface inside the containment. The cooling system would have been restored eventually, and the molten core cooled to a manageable temperature. The containment would have been cleaned up on the inside. Then a messy job of removing the molten core from the containment would have begun, packing the (now solid again) fuel bit by bit into transportation containers to be shipped to processing plants. Depending on the damage, the block of the plant would then either be repaired or dismantled.
Now, where does that leave us?
・The plant is safe now and will stay safe.
・Japan is looking at an INES Level 4 Accident: Nuclear accident with local consequences. That is bad for the company that owns the plant, but not for anyone else.
・Some radiation was released when the pressure vessel was vented. All radioactive isotopes from the activated steam have gone (decayed). A very small amount of Cesium was released, as well as Iodine. If you were sitting on top of the plants’ chimney when they were venting, you should probably give up smoking to return to your former life expectancy. The Cesium and Iodine isotopes were carried out to the sea and will never be seen again.
・There was some limited damage to the first containment. That means that some amounts of radioactive Cesium and Iodine will also be released into the cooling water, but no Uranium or other nasty stuff (the Uranium oxide does not “dissolve” in the water). There are facilities for treating the cooling water inside the third containment. The radioactive Cesium and Iodine will be removed there and eventually stored as radioactive waste in terminal storage.
・The seawater used as cooling water will be activated to some degree. Because the control rods are fully inserted, the Uranium chain reaction is not happening. That means the “main” nuclear reaction is not happening, thus not contributing to the activation. The intermediate radioactive materials (Cesium and Iodine) are also almost gone at this stage, because the Uranium decay was stopped a long time ago. This further reduces the activation. The bottom line is that there will be some low level of activation of the seawater, which will also be removed by the treatment facilities.
・The seawater will then be replaced over time with the “normal” cooling water
・The reactor core will then be dismantled and transported to a processing facility, just like during a regular fuel change.
・Fuel rods and the entire plant will be checked for potential damage. This will take about 4-5 years.
・The safety systems on all Japanese plants will be upgraded to withstand a 9.0 earthquake and tsunami (or worse)
・I believe the most significant problem will be a prolonged power shortage. About half of Japan’s nuclear reactors will probably have to be inspected, reducing the nation’s power generating capacity by 15%. This will probably be covered by running gas power plants that are usually only used for peak loads to cover some of the base load as well. That will increase your electricity bill, as well as lead to potential power shortages during peak demand, in Japan.

結論：大丈夫。
MvK2010
I'm going to copy paste a full blog post of a research scientist at MIT here, who explains the situation at Fukushima much better than anyone else has, his message: no worries.
This post is by Dr Josef Oehmen, a research scientist at MIT, in Boston.
He is a PhD Scientist, whose father has extensive experience in Germany’s nuclear industry. I asked him to write this information to my family in Australia, who were being made sick with worry by the media reports coming from Japan. I am republishing it with his permission.
It is a few hours old, so if any information is out of date, blame me for the delay in getting it published.
This is his text in full and unedited. It is very long, so get comfy.
I am writing this text (Mar 12) to give you some peace of mind regarding some of the troubles in Japan, that is the safety of Japan’s nuclear reactors. Up front, the situation is serious, but under control. And this text is long! But you will know more about nuclear power plants after reading it than all journalists on this planet put together.
There was and will *not* be any significant release of radioactivity.
By “significant” I mean a level of radiation of more than what you would receive on – say – a long distance flight, or drinking a glass of beer that comes from certain areas with high levels of natural background radiation.
I have been reading every news release on the incident since the earthquake. There has not been one single (!) report that was accurate and free of errors (and part of that problem is also a weakness in the Japanese crisis communication). By “not free of errors” I do not refer to tendentious anti-nuclear journalism – that is quite normal these days. By “not free of errors” I mean blatant errors regarding physics and natural law, as well as gross misinterpretation of facts, due to an obvious lack of fundamental and basic understanding of the way nuclear reactors are build and operated. I have read a 3 page report on CNN where every single paragraph contained an error.
We will have to cover some fundamentals, before we get into what is going on.
Construction of the Fukushima nuclear power plants
The plants at Fukushima are so called Boiling Water Reactors, or BWR for short. Boiling Water Reactors are similar to a pressure cooker. The nuclear fuel heats water, the water boils and creates steam, the steam then drives turbines that create the electricity, and the steam is then cooled and condensed back to water, and the water send back to be heated by the nuclear fuel. The pressure cooker operates at about 250 °C.
The nuclear fuel is uranium oxide. Uranium oxide is a ceramic with a very high melting point of about 3000 °C. The fuel is manufactured in pellets (think little cylinders the size of Lego bricks). Those pieces are then put into a long tube made of Zircaloy with a melting point of 2200 °C, and sealed tight. The assembly is called a fuel rod. These fuel rods are then put together to form larger packages, and a number of these packages are then put into the reactor. All these packages together are referred to as “the core”.
The Zircaloy casing is the first containment. It separates the radioactive fuel from the rest of the world.
The core is then placed in the “pressure vessels”. That is the pressure cooker we talked about before. The pressure vessels is the second containment. This is one sturdy piece of a pot, designed to safely contain the core for temperatures several hundred °C. That covers the scenarios where cooling can be restored at some point.
The entire “hardware” of the nuclear reactor – the pressure vessel and all pipes, pumps, coolant (water) reserves, are then encased in the third containment. The third containment is a hermetically (air tight) sealed, very thick bubble of the strongest steel. The third containment is designed, built and tested for one single purpose: To contain, indefinitely, a complete core meltdown. For that purpose, a large and thick concrete basin is cast under the pressure vessel (the second containment), which is filled with graphite, all inside the third containment. This is the so-called “core catcher”. If the core melts and the pressure vessel bursts (and eventually melts), it will catch the molten fuel and everything else. It is built in such a way that the nuclear fuel will be spread out, so it can cool down.
This third containment is then surrounded by the reactor building. The reactor building is an outer shell that is supposed to keep the weather out, but nothing in. (this is the part that was damaged in the explosion, but more to that later).
Fundamentals of nuclear reactions
The uranium fuel generates heat by nuclear fission. Big uranium atoms are split into smaller atoms. That generates heat plus neutrons (one of the particles that forms an atom). When the neutron hits another uranium atom, that splits, generating more neutrons and so on. That is called the nuclear chain reaction.
Now, just packing a lot of fuel rods next to each other would quickly lead to overheating and after about 45 minutes to a melting of the fuel rods. It is worth mentioning at this point that the nuclear fuel in a reactor can *never* cause a nuclear explosion the type of a nuclear bomb. Building a nuclear bomb is actually quite difficult (ask Iran). In Chernobyl, the explosion was caused by excessive pressure buildup, hydrogen explosion and rupture of all containments, propelling molten core material into the environment (a “dirty bomb”). Why that did not and will not happen in Japan, further below.
In order to control the nuclear chain reaction, the reactor operators use so-called “moderator rods”. The moderator rods absorb the neutrons and kill the chain reaction instantaneously. A nuclear reactor is built in such a way, that when operating normally, you take out all the moderator rods. The coolant water then takes away the heat (and converts it into steam and electricity) at the same rate as the core produces it. And you have a lot of leeway around the standard operating point of 250°C.
The challenge is that after inserting the rods and stopping the chain reaction, the core still keeps producing heat. The uranium “stopped” the chain reaction. But a number of intermediate radioactive elements are created by the uranium during its fission process, most notably Cesium and Iodine isotopes, i.e. radioactive versions of these elements that will eventually split up into smaller atoms and not be radioactive anymore. Those elements keep decaying and producing heat. Because they are not regenerated any longer from the uranium (the uranium stopped decaying after the moderator rods were put in), they get less and less, and so the core cools down over a matter of days, until those intermediate radioactive elements are used up.
This residual heat is causing the headaches right now.
So the first “type” of radioactive material is the uranium in the fuel rods, plus the intermediate radioactive elements that the uranium splits into, also inside the fuel rod (Cesium and Iodine).
There is a second type of radioactive material created, outside the fuel rods. The big main difference up front: Those radioactive materials have a very short half-life, that means that they decay very fast and split into non-radioactive materials. By fast I mean seconds. So if these radioactive materials are released into the environment, yes, radioactivity was released, but no, it is not dangerous, at all. Why? By the time you spelled “R-A-D-I-O-N-U-C-L-I-D-E”, they will be harmless, because they will have split up into non radioactive elements. Those radioactive elements are N-16, the radioactive isotope (or version) of nitrogen (air). The others are noble gases such as Xenon. But where do they come from? When the uranium splits, it generates a neutron (see above). Most of these neutrons will hit other uranium atoms and keep the nuclear chain reaction going. But some will leave the fuel rod and hit the water molecules, or the air that is in the water. Then, a non-radioactive element can “capture” the neutron. It becomes radioactive. As described above, it will quickly (seconds) get rid again of the neutron to return to its former beautiful self.
This second “type” of radiation is very important when we talk about the radioactivity being released into the environment later on.
I will try to summarize the main facts. The earthquake that hit Japan was 7 times more powerful than the worst earthquake the nuclear power plant was built for (the Richter scale works logarithmically; the difference between the 8.2 that the plants were built for and the 8.9 that happened is 7 times, not 0.7). So the first hooray for Japanese engineering, everything held up.
When the earthquake hit with 8.9, the nuclear reactors all went into automatic shutdown. Within seconds after the earthquake started, the moderator rods had been inserted into the core and nuclear chain reaction of the uranium stopped. Now, the cooling system has to carry away the residual heat. The residual heat load is about 3% of the heat load under normal operating conditions.
The earthquake destroyed the external power supply of the nuclear reactor. That is one of the most serious accidents for a nuclear power plant, and accordingly, a “plant black out” receives a lot of attention when designing backup systems. The power is needed to keep the coolant pumps working. Since the power plant had been shut down, it cannot produce any electricity by itself any more.
Things were going well for an hour. One set of multiple sets of emergency Diesel power generators kicked in and provided the electricity that was needed. Then the Tsunami came, much bigger than people had expected when building the power plant (see above, factor 7). The tsunami took out all multiple sets of backup Diesel generators.
When designing a nuclear power plant, engineers follow a philosophy called “Defense of Depth”. That means that you first build everything to withstand the worst catastrophe you can imagine, and then design the plant in such a way that it can still handle one system failure (that you thought could never happen) after the other. A tsunami taking out all backup power in one swift strike is such a scenario. The last line of defense is putting everything into the third containment (see above), that will keep everything, whatever the mess, moderator rods in our out, core molten or not, inside the reactor.

これ、ふと頭をよぎった言葉。
ただいま、夢のある、そして業界を一悶着させそうな新しい事業の起ち上げに取り組んでいて、これまでの自分が培ってきたインターネット分野やテクノロジー分野を超えた、実業（リアルを扱う事業）に及ぶことをやらかそうとしています。
そうすると、これまでの自分の経験やノウハウが通用しないハードルがたくさん現れてくるわけで、人材はどうする、どんな人材を雇うあるいは参画してもらうのが最適か、場所はどうする、オペレーションはどうする、流通はどうする、お客様サポートはどうする、十分な資本はどこから調達してくる、などなど、これまでの小資本でなんとかやりくり出来てたソフトウェア開発のお仕事とはまるで畑違いの悩み事がわんさか。
（とはいえ、ネットやIT技術はこの事業をブーストさせるためには必須なので、それは自分のアドバンテージ。）
悩みもがいている、というよりは、キャッキャと遊んでいるかのように取り組んでいるので傍から見れば「なんじゃこいつ」と言われても仕方がないけど、実際はいろんな事が頭をよぎったりして、思わず当初とは違う方向性に進んでいる自分に気がついて方向修正したり。
最初の”Think Big”は、かのAppleのSteve Jobs御大が口にしてたワードだけど、その以下はそれに続けてスラスラと出てきた言葉。いつでも原点に戻れるように「これだけは忘れまい！」と心に留めておくべく、メモ。
● Think big, …大きくものを考えろ
● Act quick, …すぐに動け
● Start small, …小さく始めろ
● Enjoy all. …全てを楽しめ
●Think big,（大きくものを考えろ）
物事に取り組むにはまず、極大化された理想の状態を考えるべし。その姿が一番シンプルでわかりやすくて、誰でも納得するくらいの説得力が無ければ、そこからディテールを掘り下げていっても無駄。枝葉末節のことを考えるのは後でもOK。「神は細部に宿る」なんて言った人がいるらしいけれど、細部の苦労が報われて美しい姿になるためには、必ずその上位の考えが美しい必要がある。
●Act quick,（すぐに動け）
その行動が必要だと分かっているならばすぐに行動すればいい。「いや、よく考えをまとめてから…」という綺麗好きな人がいるが、考えることが目的ならまだしも、実現することが目的ならばさっさと初動に移せばいい。色々考える必要があるのは「わからないから」であって、そんな自分が考えて予想した結果を行動で確認する作業なんてナンセンス。逆に行動すれば解決できることまでウンウン考えていると、数少ない本当に考えるべき事ことまで埋もれてしまって重要度が麻痺してしまう。
●Start small,（小さく始めろ）
自信家ならばいきなり大きく始めて（上手くいけば）成功するだろうけど、事業とはイチかバチかのギャンブルではないのだから、理想は追求しつつも「成功させる」という目的を確実に達成させるため、なるべく最初はミニマムで始めるべき。自分は神ではないのだから、途中、全てあるいは一部において自分が当初考えていた予想が食い違っていたときのための、それを改めて軌道修正できる余力が必ず必要。
なにも説明する必要なし。
●Enjoy all.（全てを楽しめ）
面白いことばかりじゃない。（いや、本当は面白いことばっかりなんだけど）楽しい経験はまぁさておき、あっちこっちで動いていると反対意見も出るし、現実的な障害を見つけてしまったり、単に自分の利益だけを気にする人もいたり、気力体力的にも疲れてきたり、と。
それはどんなにメンタル・フィジカルに自信がある人であっても経験することでダメージはあるだろうけど、それもひっくるめて「すっげー楽しい経験をしてる。この体験を知らずに死んでられねえ（笑」くらい、ある意味自分という主人公をコントロールしている第三者の自分という視点で、全ての物語を楽しむことが最終的には良い結果につながるんじゃないかな、と。

『月刊Big Tommorow』という雑誌がある。青春出版社が発行しているビジネス雑誌だ。流通点数が多く、コンビニでも良く見かけるので、知っている人も多いと思うが、実はこの雑誌、表紙のコピーが毎月同じような内容であることをご存知だろうか。
例えば、今月号の表紙を見てみよう。『【大特集１】 ひとつの思いつきが１億円になった例も！ 「カネなし」「コネなし」！30代で成功した人たちの人生が変わる儲けの仕組み 【大特集２】 お金持ち10人の24時間研究１億円が手に入る「賢いお金の習慣」』。
先月号はこんな感じ。『なぜかお金が増える人 知らずに貧乏に向かっている人 このやり方で決まる！』『0円で不動産を買う方法から自動的にFXで稼ぐやり方まで 日本人の５％の人がやっている 「毎月大金が入ってくる仕組み」』
先々月号はこんな感じ。『【総力特集】 一生分のお金を５年で稼ぐ ｢人生逆転プラン｣の作り方』
このように、『いかに本業とは違う方法で稼ぐか』という記事を毎月毎月掲載しているわけだが、流通点数が多いということはそれだけ記事の内容に対して需要があるということだろう。だが、需要が多いということは、裏返せば『本業』に対する不満も大きいということだ。僕にはこの雑誌から、『労働から解放されたい』というサラリーマンの怨念を感じる。（僕自身からもそれは感じるわけだが）
要は労働から解放されれば良いわけで（自己実現願望を除いて）、そのための方法を何個か考えてみたのだが、どれもリスクが大きいか、労働から解放されるために更なる労働を強いられるものばかりで、考えただけでげんなりしてしまう。そういうのってやっぱりないよな…と思った瞬間、閃く。
「そうだ、美人でお金持ちの女性に自分を養ってもらえばいいじゃ～ん！」
すぐに『出会い系サイトの広告かよ』とか『ただしイケメンに限る』という文章が頭の中に展開したが、少し思い直す。待てよ。社会的に嘲笑の対象になると思うが、同時に今の時代でこの思考・考え方・生き方は案外メジャーに行けるんじゃないだろうか。何しろニートが大量増殖している時代だし、『女性に養ってもらう』という考え方がメジャーになってもおかしくはない。昔から『ヒモ』とか色んな言葉はあったと思うが、もう少し『ニート』のようにメジャーなものとして。
要は、『女性に養ってもらう』方法を、一つのビジネステクやLifeHack、裏技として捉えれば良いのだ。今は価値観が多様化して何でもありの時代だ。だったら『男性に養ってもらう』という考え方が反転して『女性に養ってもらう』という考え方が流行したとしてもおかしくはない。
何しろ女性は強い。男性よりも圧倒的に強い。女性は強者で男性は弱者だ。女性は気が強くて、男性は引っ込み思案だ。男性を守るのは女性で、男性は女性から『守られるべき存在』になってしまったのだ。だからそんな時代で、男性はキャピキャピと、「アタシのカノジョ～、ちょ～金持ちで～」「ワタシも～カノジョから『アナタのこと、一生面倒みてあげる』って言われちゃった～」という会話をすればよいのかもしれない。ガールズトークのようにメンズトークをすればよいのかもしれない。「『男性は女性を守る』という本能が働いていて（キリッ」という人もいるが、僕には『男性本能』『女性本能』なんてとっくにぶっ壊れているように思えてしょうがない。
Metro紙の威力すげえ。
この１～２日の間に欧州中のニュースメディアに「初音ミク」の話が広まってやがる。

Vocaloid関連の思いつきと偏見に基づく仮説をちょっと書いてみた。
http://leetneet.com/component/k2/item/286-nyaf/
初音ミクの英語版を発売する、とクリプトン社長がＮＹで発言したらしい。Youtubeの動画を見る限り、現地の反応はよさそうに見える。「この製品が欲しいですか」という司会者の質問に対し、撮影している女性がYeah, Fuck Yeah! と叫んでいるのも聞こえる（まあ、お下品）。
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oHEP8cwb0c
ただ、海外の掲示板を見ると不安視する声もある。「そんな英語で大丈夫か」となるのが心配のようだ。「英語を話せる声優が音声データを提供したルカならともかく、ミクの中の人は英語しゃべれねーだろ」
http://vocaloidotaku.net/index.php?/topic/8336-english-version-of-hatsune-miku-in-the-works/
でも、実際はもっと心配すべきことがある。海外メーカーが発売している英語版Vocaloid（海外ではEngloidと呼ばれることが多い）が、ミクどころか他の日本語Vocaloidと比べても全く人気がないという、目を逸らしてはならない事実が。
最も古いVocaloid製品であるLeonやLolaが歌っている動画をYoutubeで検索してみると、Leonで最も再生数の多いものはたったの３万件強。Lolaは３万件弱で、しかもその歌はLeonと一緒に歌っているMagnetだったりする。もちろん日本語で、日本人が作っている。
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFlgQrqTV1g
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ut_olrFLVQ8
他のEngloidを見ても、再生数を稼いでいるのはMiriamの歌うFly Me to The Moonくらい（かろうじて10万超）。おまけにこれも日本人制作だ。他のEngloidは言わずもがな。
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jVBJ5bajNo
100万再生超の動画が10曲を軽く超える初音ミクはもとより、数十万の再生数を持つ曲があるクリプトン製Vocaloidやがくぼ、Gumiにも遠く及ばない。要するにEngloidは全然人気がなく、加えて数少ない曲の製作者に占める日本人の比率が高い、即ち外国での人気は一段と低いってことだ。そんな状況で英語版ミクを出したとして、果たして米国を含む外国人はきちんとそれを購入し、曲を作ってくれるのだろうか。
で、こっからが仮説。そもそも何で初音ミクはこんなに沢山の人気曲を出せたのだろうか。人気と言っても再生数が軽く億単位に乗っているLady Gagaなんかに比べれば微々たるものだが、それでもVocaloidの中では突出しているのは事実。一体何が初音ミクと他のVocaloidを分けたのか。思いついたのは以下の３点だ。
（１）ＤＴＭの利用者層
ＤＴＭ業界のことはよく知らないのだが、MIDI音源の２大メーカーが国内にある点などを見ても、実は日本は「ＤＴＭ大国」なのではなかろうか。メーカーサイドだけでなく、利用者サイドでも。つまり、日本は世界的に見ても「素人による曲作り」がかなり盛んな国なのではないかと思えるのだ。昔のパソコン通信の頃からMIDIで作った曲をアップしている人はいたし、そうした分厚いユーザー層という基盤があったからこそVocaloidが発売された時にも多くの人がそれを上手く使いこなした。その結果、多数のVocaloid曲が作成され、その中からヒット作も生まれてきたんじゃなかろうか。
んなこたない、海外にも分厚いＤＴＭユーザー層は存在する、と言われてしまえばそれまでの仮説なんだが、YoutubeでVocaloid曲を見ているとそんな気がしてならない。実際、最近でこそ外国人の作ったVocaloid曲をちょくちょく見かけるようになったが、昔はGiuseppe氏くらいしかいなかった。
http://giuseppevocaloid.blogspot.com/
いくらVocaloidというツールを与えられても、それを使いこなすユーザーがあまりに少なければ、なかなか名曲は生まれてこない。Engloidの中には日本語Vocaloidより古くに発売されたものがあるにもかかわらず、Engloidの人気曲が存在しないのは、ユーザー層の厚みが違うから、じゃなかろか。
（２）使いやすさ
日本のＤＴＭユーザー層が外国に比べて分厚いのが事実だとしても、初音ミク以前にはVocaloidのヒット曲が生まれてこなかった。おそらくKaitoやMeikoが初音ミクに比べて使いにくい（声の調整が難しい）ソフトだったからではないかと思う。
これまた個人の偏見と独断だが、Meikoは使う人によって極端に声が変わるソフトだ。上手い人が使えばとてもゴージャスな声になるが、普通にやると妙に耳障りな典型的機械音にしかならない。個人的にVocaloidの中ではMeikoの歌が最も聞き応えがあると思っている（例えばCradle of Destinyなど）。しかし、それだけ聞き応えのある曲を作る人は本当に限られている。
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQOdrqXRPrs
Kaitoも上手く歌わせないと細く弱々しい声にしなからない。それに対し、初音ミクは初心者でも割に安定した質の声を出せるソフトだ。もちろん初音ミクも作り手によって結構違う声が出てくるんだが、少なくともMeikoほど極端な違いは生じない。Meikoで上に紹介したレベルの曲を作ろうと思えば相当な経験を積む必要があるだろうが、初音ミクはそこまで行かずとも「これならアップしていいんじゃね」と思える曲になる。つまり、それだけ曲を作るハードルが下がり、作られる曲の数が増えるって訳だ。数が増えれば、その中から出てくる名曲の数も増えることが期待できる。
（３）声質
初音ミクの声は要するにアニメ声だ。声優が音声データを提供しているんだから当たり前っちゃ当たり前なんだが、初音ミク以前のVocaloidにアニメ声はなかった。LeonやLolaはセッション・シンガーをモデルに作られ、Miriam、Meiko、Kaito、Sweet Annは実際に歌手が音声データを提供した。この差は意外に重要だったのではないかと、これまた独断と偏見だが、最近はそう思っている。
歌手の声を使ったVocaloidの歌は、そのジャンルがポップスであれロックであれダンスミュージックであれオペラであれ、人間が歌った当該ジャンルの曲と比べられるのを避けることはできない。Meikoの歌は同じようにゴージャスな女性ヴォーカルが好きな人に対して一番訴求しやすい性質を持っているが、ゴージャスな女性ヴォーカル好きな人は当然のようにMeikoの歌を人間の歌と比べるだろう。そうなると合成音声であるVocaloidは不利だ。普通にやる限り、人間の声には勝てない。そして、Meikoに限らず、歌声を聞かせることを商売にしている歌手のデータを使ったVocaloidは同じ問題に直面する。
外国人がEngloidに対してしばしば不満を述べているのは、これが原因ではないだろうか。彼らはLolaやMiriamやSweet Annの声を、例えばLady GagaやBritney Spearsあたりと無意識のうちに比較し「なんじゃこりゃ」と憤っているのではないかと思う。彼らにとって外国語である日本語Vocaloidの場合は機械っぽい声もそれほど気にはならないだろうが、母国語で歌われるととたんに拒否反応が出るのはそういう「無意識のうちに比較するスタンダードな声」が頭の中にあるためだろう。
ではなぜ初音ミクは成功したのか。アニメ声だから。アニメ声で歌われる曲といえば日本ではアニソン、いやむしろアニメのキャラソンだろう。キャラソンはそもそも上手く歌うことに力を入れるジャンルではない。むしろキャラっぽさを演じることが重要な曲であり、その意味でVocaloidでも太刀打ちしやすい曲なのだ。下手であっても、キャラクターとしての特徴さえ出ていれば聞き手はおそらく満足する。初音ミクの初期のヒット曲である「みくみくにしてあげる」や「恋スルVOC@LOID」の歌詞を見れば、それがまさしく初音ミクの「キャラソン」であることが分かるだろう。
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnpSAMnGi78
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Emt20uQzyuU
他のVocaloidより戦いやすい戦場を選んだ初音ミクは、順調に曲を増やし、その曲を聴く消費者も増やした。一度そういう流れを作れば、キャラソン以外のジャンルに打って出ることも可能になる。耳を「みっくみくにされた」（聴覚神経がおかしくなった）ファンがそうした曲にもついてくるからだ。かくして歌のジャンルも広がり、より多くの人の耳に触れるようになり、その中から新たにみくみく菌に棲みつかれた感染者が現れ、以下このスパイラルの繰り返し。かくて現在に至る。
（４）結論
さて、以上の「仮説という名の独断と偏見」を踏まえて、それでは初音ミクの英語版は成功するのだろうか。もし（１）にあげた「ＤＴＭのユーザー層」が英語圏で極めて薄いのだとしたら、これはすぐには成果が上がらないと見た方がいいだろう。初音ミク購入をきっかけにＤＴＭに触れる人が出てくるとしても、そうした中から名曲が生まれるまでにはどうしても時間を要する。英語で歌う初音ミクのヒット曲100万再生超が達成されるまでの道のりは遠い。
だが、ＤＴＭユーザー層がある程度、せめて日本並みの規模で存在するなら、案外早く成果が上がると期待できる。もちろん英語版でも（２）使いやすく（３）アニメ声、という特徴は保持しなければならないが、それができれば日本で起きたのと同じことがまた起きる可能性はある。え、そもそも海外に「アニメのキャラソン好き」市場なんてものが存在するのかって？ いい質問だ。普通に考えればそんなものは確かに存在しないか、存在するとしても極めて小さな市場だろう。だが、ちと待て。クリプトンによれば最近は海外でVocaloidの人気が高まっているそうじゃないか。これが英語版みくみくスパイラルの入り口になる可能性があるんじゃないか。
http://blog.piapro.jp/2010/07/vocaloid-1.html
問題は今Vocaloidを喜んで聞いている外国人が、初音ミクの何を気に入ったのかということだ。日本語の響きが好き、という理由だったら、英語版にとっては厳しい。だがそうではなくアニメ声が耳に染み付いてしまったということなら、これはチャンス。英語版を使ってアニメ声を広げ、感染者を増やすことが可能になるかもしれない。
そしてもし以上が全て上手くいったなら、これまで不人気をかこってきたEngloidたちに日の目が当たるかもしれない。KaitoやMeikoが初音ミクのヒットで見直され、販売が増え、曲も増えていったように、LeonやLolaやMiriamやSweet AnnやPrimaやSonikaやBig AlやTonioの歌う曲が続々と作られ、多くの再生数を積み上げていく日が来るかもしれないのだ。そこまで行けば初音ミクは本当のお化けソフトになるだろう。自らの売上高だけでなく、市場自体を作り上げてしまう商品。Ｔ型フォードなど過去にも限られた数しか存在しなかったような消費市場の頂点に君臨する存在。ただでさえ天使のミクが市場という名の世界を創造する女神になる。

はじめてくれたまえ
マーケッタ：
まず情報共有です。
ROIが落ちた原因は、オーバーチュア特にBIGのCPAが大幅に上がっているからです。
CTRは上がっていてもCVRは下がっていてます。しかも競合が原因で全体のCPCが高騰しています。
ちなみにMFOの影響はほぼ無いようです。
アドワーズのCPAはOKですが、SMALLでMFAの影響が出ているキーワードが散見されました。
完全にBEPがずれてしまったので再計算が必要になってしまいました。
私の意見では、対策は3つです。
まずはSERPのTOPとSIDEとオーガニックも含めた全ての競合のテキストの再分析
そしてLPO特にEFOの見直しを行いながら、
そろそろOSOに取り組んでもいいのではないかと思います。
他に対策はありませんか？
部長：
業界用語を使わないというのはどうかね？
1. ビジネスを立ち上げる日を設定する。BeckyとSheilaの場合は、5月に会社をその年の9月に設立すると決めた。最初は「どんなにか大変だろう」と思ったのだが、それほどでもないことに気づいたが、日付にはこだわった。信念を持って計画を達成しよう。
2. 自分たちに完璧を求めないこと。努力するのはよいことだけど、顧客のための自分のドアを開く方法を見つけた方がよい。
3. テスト期間中に収益をあげよう。ビジネスを立ち上げ、ビジネスを始めるときには、すでに顧客からのフィードバック、何を売るのか、何に優れているのか、何が収益が高いのか、自分が何がしたいのか、ということが土台になっているように。
4. 狭いターゲットに絞ろう。これは非常に難しいことだ。なぜなら、人間の傾向として、巨大な市場の後についていって成長するほうが簡単だと、考えがちだからだ。小さな市場にサービスを提供するという信念は、最もよいチャンスに注力することや、とてもよい製品やソリューションを作るときに役立つはずだ。そうすれば顧客はクチコミによってそれを広め売上がついてくるだろう。
5. 顧客の課題を解決するために自分たちのツールを売り込むことよりも、顧客の課題自体に集中しよう。この心構えは、ビジネスプランを練ったり、製品を顧客のニーズに合わせることに役立つはずだ。これは、異なる製品やサービスがビジネスを成長させるためのソリューションになるかもしれないということを気づかせるかもしれない。

5 Secrets from a Profitable Start-Up business
A year ago, Becky McCray and Sheila Scarborough were entrepreneurs with their own businesses who attended the SOBCon conference and decided to partner to start a business. By September 2009, they had launched Tourism Currents to teach tourism professionals how to use social media. In their first month, they generated a profit. Today, they came back to SOBCon and shared the secrets of their success, with the caveat ? these are not rules, the path has not been perfect, but it worked for them, so it could work for you too:
1.Set a deadline to launch your business. They decided in May that they would launch in September, and stuck to the deadline even as they learned their initial expectations of “How hard could it be?” were inaccurate. Push forward and…
2.Don’t expect perfection of yourself. It is good to strive for this, but is better to find a way to open your doors to customers so you can…
3.Generate revenue while you test. Launch and iterate on your business based on feedback from your customers, what sells, what you’re good at, what is profitable, what you want to do.
4.Solve for a narrow target. This is very difficult because our natural tendency is to think it is easier to grow by going after a big market. Trust that solving for a narrow market helps you focus on the best opportunities and will help you create great products and solutions that your customers help you sell through word of mouth.
5.Focus on your customer’s problems rather than the tools you’re selling to solve them. Having this mindset allows you to evolve both your business plan and products to meet their needs. This allows you to see that a different tool (your product or service), rather than a better one, might be the solution that helps you grow your business.
