# Obsessive Vending Machine Blogs This Blog Uploads a Picture of the Same Vending Machine Every Day By Andrew Sztein | Published 2013-04-12 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vending-machine-blog References: [kotaku](http://kotaku.com/the-most-obsessive-vending-machine-blog-ive-ever-seen-472366085) & [flickr](http://www.flickr.com/photos/motomachi24/sets/72157617146435421/) This vending machine blog could very well be the most single-minded thing I've ever seen on the Internet, and I love it for that. What's even more wonderful about the vending machine blog is its title, which loosely translated from Japanese is "I take a picture of the vending machine every day (or so). I’m very sorry," according to Kotaku.com. At least the vending machine blog focuses on a machine that has a window that changes up what is stocked in the machine every day in a visual way. If it was one of the North American style machines that don't allow the customer to see inside the machine, the blog would get really repetitive, really fast. If you don't speak Japanese, the vending machine blog by a man who goes by the name Motomachi can be viewed on a Flickr account. Just don't expect to see a Pepsi machine in the images. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.3/10 - Popularity: 59% | Activity: 63% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Internet](https://www.trendhunter.com/internet) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Obsessive Vending Machine Photography:** Opportunity for photography companies to offer eccentric vending machine photography services to customers looking for unique content for their brands. - **Micro-niche Blogging:** An innovative trend in blogging where bloggers focus on a single, specific topic and generate a significant following of enthusiasts. - **Quirky Marketing Strategies:** Marketing departments can leverage unique vending machines to capture customers' attention, increase brand awareness and customer engagement. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Photography:** Photography industry can offer services and products for bloggers who generate eccentric, specialty material for their clients. - **Blogging:** Opportunity for blogging platforms to extend into micro-niche blogging for audiences looking for specialized topic discussions. - **Marketing:** Marketing companies can use unique vending machines in novel ways to generate attention and promote different brands. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Porcelain-Clad Vending Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/automatica-project.md) - [Randomized Record Vending Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/record-vending-machine.md) - [AI-Enabled Vending Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vending-tracker.md) - [Team-Building Vending Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/treat-vending-machine.md) - [AI-Enabled Salad Vending Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salad-stand-vending-machine.md) - [Off-Beat Shellfish Vending Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/farm-suzuki.md) - [AI-Powered Fresh Food Vending Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aipowered-fresh-food-vending-machines.md) - [Heat-Sensitive Vending Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heat-sensitive-vending-machine.md) - [Colorful Box-Like Coffee Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/food-coffee-machine.md)
