A couple of weeks ago I wrote about using Mixi to practice your Japanese. This week I will be talking about another valuable (but fun) online tool that is a little easier on the busy learner. I started getting into Twitter because I thought it would be a cool addition to this site. Every day [...]
January 5 – January 25 (that’s like…3 weeks in review!) Here’s to another attempt at keeping up with all that silly Japanese news.
