    The most striking point of the blogger is that he doesn't claim to be a Japan expert on every facts despite very good knowledge on Japan and a talented man personally. I wish reading of book will be worthy of time.

    Cost cutting, outsourcing, abundant manpower in emerging economies playing vital role in downgrading the salaries. If someone don't agree with low pay, the post will be filled certainly by anyone next in the queue. These factors are applicable in manufacturing and IT industries. Service sector, which is always underestimated in Japan still has a room to grow and people with proper skill have good opportunity to shake the stagnation.

    The new side bar feels irritating for me. They could find better way to serve this. I don't think Facebook will suffer from technical glitch with this video chat as they are already world's most scalable web platform. But it won't be easy enabling video conferencing for such a huge user base.

    The front page looks great and professional design. Details page also looks good but the navigation has become uncomfortable, specially for all the categorized headlines we need to go back and forth everytime. This new system may be to forcing us to see Top page as it contains vital ads ;)

    If you don't wanna keep the categorized headlines, you could make submenus under the topmenu.

    Comment editing option please. It should be permissible for a certain amount of time for a new comment.

    The "Good" and "Bad" buttons could be Ajax based (like Youtube) for making ease of use.

    Anyway, new design of a site always gives freshness.

    This is a prime example of Jgirls being so attracting without having big boobies and butts. All the threes are so different in look, color and shape but the left one looks so naturally angelic. JT is stimulating to surge the temperature of the gaijins already suffering from yellow fever.

    According to police, the boy’s 19-year-old mother was not home at the time.

    What can you expect from such an immature mother knowing that kids have a tendency to make weird fun of younger kids.

    SMS didn't work the super congested Softbank network amid overwhelmed voice traffic on March 11. Rarely any Japanese use SMS as they are more than comfortable with their anonymous(mostly don't use their name) keitai mail. The gaijin socieity will be the ultimate beneficiary by this borderless service.

    To address the perceived problem, Google announced its plans in July 2009 for a Chrome-based operating system that would enable computers to turn on in a matter of seconds and encourage more web surfing.

    I'm a Windows user and my usage of PC is 100% online. If they provide free online storage for keeping files(not only documents) as easy as file system using PCs then one can consider this Chromebook. Other than this, people will hardly motivated.

    In an earlier blog post, the company had said that data had not been encrypted and had been kept in a separate location from the credit card information.

    So, Sony might have just encrypted the data after the plain data was hacked to save their face in front of media.

    The entire credit card table was encrypted and we have no evidence that credit card data was taken,” the company wrote in its blog post.

    Do they expect the hacker be stupid enough to put a footprint after they had stolen the data?

    When the social structure or social bonding is non-existant, this type of incidents occur naturally as by product. If the couple would have proper support to raise the child, their psychological state and guardianship wouldn't be ruined so drastically.

    Two tired players of the market have realized at last that they have nothing to do in front of iOS and Android and it's better to gamble by hotchpotch of Bing craps and already defeated Symbian.
