Description

SoftBank hails a ride (share), CoinCheck checks in & docomo’s seeing double! Plus, how to watch the Olympics & cutting through the BS(/CS) of satellite TV. All this, & some “obligation chocolates”, if you’ll be my valentine on this week’s #ZettaiGeekDayo!

As always, if you have any comments, questions, concerns, topics or you just wanna chat, I’d love to hear from you. Please tweet them at me on Twitter @kayleedayo with the hashtag #ZettaiGeekDayo so I can find them.
