RE: uh, oh.

We had some technical difficulties today. Good thing James recognised it early! It is all taken care of now.
Onward we go!

Ramen... in a Can?!










Not since sliced bread...

What a delicious invention!
Of course instant ramen has been around for awhile but you cannot take that "on the go."

Not so with Ramen-in-a-can...

Mobile Ramen! I dare say that it is the best innovation in ramen since Momofuku Ando invented instant noodles.
<-- Mr. Momofuku. Doesn't he look awesome in this picture :)




Too bad Ando missed this Ramen milestone, he died early this year (and was mourned by hungry college students everywhere :)









I wonder if Takeshi Yamada's name will go down in Ramen history...




Well, at least he got a hot search on Nipponster :)

We've Been Quiet. Here's Why...

We have been working a lot of different things here.

For ONe:

We've been tinkering with a new "hot search archive" program that we think will pretty cool.


Um, I know you are waiting for me to show a picture or post a link to it but...
It isn't ready yet ...
(That was hard to say)



Also we've been brainstorming and working on our wiki project. It is going to be big!
Let me give you the gist of the concept now:

Imagine a wikipedia for Japan-related sites; An encyclopedia filled with "about pages" describing all of the Japan-related sites online.

That is basically the idea behind the project. Or at least one pillar of the project.

We want the project to also be a center for people to organise projects to improve Japan-related content online.

And the URL to this new project is at....

Sorry, I can't release that URL yet.

Ah, what the heck, it's

http://jproject.wikia.com


But let me warn, there is barely anything there yet. So be patient with us, we still have a lot of work to do.

(so much work, so little time...)
