As I learn more and more kanji I become braver surfing the menus from my keitai’s web browser. The other night I ventured into the horoscopes area. Expecting to find a write up for Capricorns or for my blood type (A…yes people are categorized by their blood types here), I instead found a fortune telling system based on my phone’s extended moji (characters) or character icons. That day I was asked to choose one moji from a given set of transportation related moji (icons of a train, bus, ship, car, etc.). I chose the truck and received my fortune in return. I couldn’t really understand the fortune but I did get the advice that if I used the truck icon in an email sent to a friend at 8:30pm it would be a good thing. Oh I love how bytes can be cosmic too.
