Today's Beer Index

I love Yahoo Japan's weather information. They have Laundry Watch, which provides info on what percentage of your clothes will dry (T-shirts in 3 hours; jeans will dry completely...), and Brolly Watch, which tells you weather or not you should pack a compact umbrella, or bring a bigger, heavy duty one.

Today, I discovered several new things, obviously put in place for advertising purposes, but cute nonetheless. Firstly, the Beer Index, which I'm assuming associates the number of displayed beers with quenching one's thirst.

My second discovery, was the Sweat Index, which indicates how much sweat, or how sweaty, you will be getting. Today's Sweat Index is a drippy "taratara".

Also in line with Japan's horrible summer season, we have the Icecream Index, and Heatstroke Watch, the latter of which advises people on how wary they should be of heatstroke. Today's Heatstroke Watch states: BE VIGILANT.
