Even if you know from your knowledge that 'some people say' good morning 'somewhere in the world, some people say' good night '', there is no chance to realize that in everyday life. When I see the site ' Waking and Sleeping ' that collects

geotagged tweets containing 'Good morning' and 'Good night' in various languages from Twitter and displays them on the map, 'Good morning' is said at the same timing as myself. You can find people who tweeted, or people who tweeted 'good night' on the other side of the globe.

When I accessed the above URL, the globe was displayed, and a red dot representing 'Good morning' was immediately displayed around the Philippines.

Above the red dot is the word 'Good morning'. Someone in the Philippines seems to have tweeted with 'Good morning'. In addition to PC browsers, 'Waking and Sleeping' is also compatible with Chrome on Android and Safari on iPhone.

After that, tweets such as 'Good morning' and 'Good Morning' were displayed one after another in Japan and other places. As the sun begins to shine on East Asia on the globe, it is visually clear that the region is just approaching the morning.

Some are awake and others are about to fall asleep. In Brazil on the other side of the globe, a blue dot for 'good night' and a tweet 'Boa noite. Bom de scanso' were displayed. This is the Portuguese word for 'good night, rest slowly'.

You can also specify a specific time by clicking the tick mark at the bottom. However, the only tweets that can be viewed retroactively are those that have been acquired since accessing 'Waking and Sleeping'. Also, if you close or refresh the page, the tweets you have acquired will disappear.
