One small step for JapanSoc…

On October 08, 2008 in #The Japan-related Web Debate, Community building, Future of the J-web, On the J-web

One small step for JapanSoc, one giant leap for the J-web!

JapanSoc, the Japan-related web’s social bookmarking website/ community watercooler, was just featured on JapanProbe.com

From its start DailyJ has been a huge fan and support of the site because of its ability to bring the Japan-related web into a tight-knit community. I have said before (guest blogging on RisingSunOfNihon) that I think JapanSoc will be very significant in the future of the Japan-related web, and I think this latest feature was a step in that direction.

And perhaps, although it was just a small step (as far as difficulty) for JapanSoc, it will have a giant effect on the Japan-related web.

It seems that the way we interact, and perhaps help others, on the J-web is changing; becoming more sophisticated. And it seems that the idea of community is spreading.

I hope so! Ganbarou Jsoc!

    It’s great that JapanSoc is picking up steam. I can only wonder where it will be a year or two from now if it continues to grow.

  2. billywest Said,

    No doubt in my mind that JapanSoc will become the best-known Japan blogosphere portal in the relatively near future.

  3. The Chemist Said,

    I’ll second that notion!
    From the start it was clear that a strong core user group (especially comprised of bloggers) would be key.
    And that is what the site has today.
    It is nice to take a moment to celebrate that accomplishment. Otsukare, Nick!
    At the same time, we know we cannot rest on our laurels. We are just at the beginning of the community success story.

  4. Bill Said,

    Good for you and getting noticed by JapanProbe. One small step at a time and before you know it, you are there.

  5. The Chemist Said,

    Hi Bill! Congrats to you too on the successful move to B5media!
