Pan-Pacific Bricks
Posted: Wed Nov 09, 2005 4:58 pm
A few months ago, Bruce demonstrated how easy it is to create a LEGO blog, and I created my own. It's been fairly focused on my own personal interests -- my own creations and whatever catches my eye on Brickshelf.
One thing I've started doing beyond that, though, is to pay a bit more attention to what's going on across the Pacific, in Japan. I read and write Japanese, so I regularly visit Japanese blogs to catch up on what's going on with LEGO over there, post comments, and so on. Bruce's recent "Blogsplosion" post on VignetteBricks reminded me that there are even more Japanese blogs out there.
I thought it might be interesting to create a separate blog that focuses on the Japanese LEGO "scene." I haven't finished adding all the links and haven't settled on a permanent name yet, but here's the URL:
http://JapaneseLEGO.Blogspot.com
I'd really appreciate feedback before I announce my new blog more widely. Is there interest in finding out what the Japanese bloggers are saying? Are you interested in learning about differences between Japanese and English-speaking AFOL culture? Let me know what your interests are as well.
Thanks in advance!
