Ever wonder what ASIMO, the world's most advanced humanoid robot, would do with a day off in one of the world's biggest cities?
ASIMO, Honda's humanoid robot, goes on a tour of New York City in a new video that is available via Honda's YouTube channel as well as on Honda and ASIMO social media platforms.
Earlier this year, the newest version of ASIMO completed a successful North American debut in New York with three major appearances; first entertaining more than three million viewers on "LIVE with Kelly and Michael," then impressing some of the country's top tech and robotics media at an invitation-only demonstration event and then wrapping up its visit by stealing the spotlight at the New York International Auto Show.

Believe it! It's easier than ever.

It's a fact, that it is easier than ever to get a great deal on a new or pre-owned car these days.  The landscape for car shopping has shifted largely  to the Intenet as the first place to go for information, inventory and pricing.  And dotcoms are everywhere to make that easy for anyone.


Likewise it's a platform for automobile dealers to buy cars to populate their inventories.  By buying direct.  Here's an example of the banner we used to get your attention:
