Connections on the J-web and some tidying

On November 27, 2007 in Community building, DailyJ Mission, On the J-web, Suggestions Please

Since my first posts about “connections” (similarities) between Japan-related sites got such good feedback I have decided to keep it up and post short “On the J-web” posts listing connections I have found. Like I’ve said before I think this will help build a better Japan-blogger community (shall we call it the Japan blogosphere?)

And today is a perfect day for that in my book because it seems that our past interviewees have been cooking up a storm!

Here are some of the great connections I found:

#1

Jamaipanese is offering to guest blog <—–> Digital World Tokyo has asked for guest bloggers

Okay, Jamai, how did you miss that one?! You must not be taking your Vitamin J. For shame…

#2

Gaijin Tonic has a post about finding authentic western goods in Japan (at Tesco branches) <—–>NihonHacks is always looking for good tips like this (like Thomas’ post on finding cheese in Japan)

(also I commented on Gaijin Tonics post that you can get Costco Japan’s goods shipped to you anywhere in Japan from the site theflyingpig.com)

#3

KeepinPaceInJapan is being honored for a photograph he shot <—–>Evan at Babibubebo.com (who was also a buddy of mine at Jouchi U.) does photography and is looking for photos for his Japan photo contest.

btw, Evan I want to interview you (I’m just all over the place right now but I will email you).

#4

Checking your Japanese-English translations with Google Fight - JapanNewbie responds to NihonHacks’ response to JapanNewbie, and so on…

Tidying - I am planning to delete some of the categories that would be better as tags (now that I have tags - thank you wordpress upgrade). I am still not sure which I should make tags and which should be categories. It is confusing having both. Any thoughts, bloggers?
