bijin tokei
Jan 29,2010
Would you like to have a beautiful woman tell you what time it is every time you look at the clock?
At least one Japanese thought it was a neat idea and made "bijin-tokei".
"Bijin" means beautiful lady and "Tokei" means clock in Japanese.
Basically "bijin-tokei" is a clock application made of 1,440 beautiful women.
All women are normal girls (no professional models or actors) who were asked for a street snap in Tokyo.
Once you download the application to your computer or cell phone / iphone, beautiful women are reloaded every minute, holding up a little blackboard where they wrote the time in their own unique design. Most of these girls were caught shopping in Shibuya and Harajuku, so you can also check out the latest fashion trend from the pictures.
"bijin-tokei" had so many access, a guy version, "binan-tokei"shooting beautiful men was created.
I think bijin-tokei was successful because the girls are just normal girls who are not professional models. They are like a girl living next door or the pretty girl who goes to the same school but not too different from the viewers like a super idol.
The company decided to take it global and now it has a Paris version, and Korean version. They are also planning to have a Taiwan and Hong Kong girl version too.
Don't forget that all girls fade out in a minute. So even if you find a favorite girl, you will have to wait another 24 hours to take a look at her again.
That is when you should download (free) and save the picture on your phone or computer.

That's interesting lol. It's for the iPod Touch/iPhone, but i've never heard of it and it's been released for a while already. They even have different versions for different cities, like Hokkaido and Tokyo.

Hi bobby>
yes, thank you for taking a look at the link. It seems like they are trying to make a clock for all kinds of cities. I thought the Paris girls were gorgeous.
