Hi and thank you for visiting!
My name is Tori and this is Nipponster.com - "the Japan-enthusiast's search engine." Nipponster (ニッポンスター) is a website dedicated to working with others to better organise and enhance all of the Japan-related content online.
The goal of these collaborative efforts is to benefit Japan-enthusiasts of all sorts and create a better "J-web."
Japanopedia
Created in early 2007 the current goal of Japanopedia is to create lists of Japan-related resources.
The project is open and free for all to contribute to and use.
A wonderful community of J-bloggers and others supported the early, more grandiose, project but even their best efforts could not make up for my poor planning.
I am re-visiting the Japanopedia idea with much more modest expectations.
JapanLabs
Originally started as an experimental "science lab" for people who develop Japan-related web content, The new JapanLabs will be a showcase of Japan-related tools. The site will also link to discussions about the tools on JapanSoc.org, a reincarnation of the "science lab" idea run by a more responsible adult :)
