Ahhh, today’s blog post isn’t so much of a post, but an announcement of a new addition to our Guide library. It could easily be its own post, but we felt it is more appropriate to segregate it into a guide. About a month ago, we announced our intentions in developing How-To guides to help aid you, our [...]
Before you get your panties/boxers in a bunch about this not being a real post, know that there’s a real post hidden inside this obviously fake post, kind of… well, you’ll see. We’re working on something, though, and we’re pretty interested in your opinion before we actually start working on it too much. It’s actually [...]
I am a man of simpler tastes. For me, the top posts I’ve chosen weren’t necessarily filled with informative content or of culturally importance. Nope. No siree! The one’s I’ve chosen were the ones that made me laugh, the ones we had fun making, or the ones that set important milestones in Tofugu’s history. My [...]
Although I’ve been a long-time reader of Tofugu (since ‘07, I think?), this was my first year getting to write and work for Tofugu. It’s been a lot of fun writing and reading so many posts this year, especially because 2011 had more Tofugu posts than any other year ever. These 5 posts were my [...]
2011 was a great year for Tofugu (I mean, I’m here now, right?) and there have been a lot of good posts and a lot of good videos. Here I have singled out five of my absolute favorites from the year. If you haven’t already read these, you most definitely should. They are great and [...]
All the regular writers at Tofugu are writing about their favorite posts of 2011, so these are my favorites (koichi). These aren’t necessarily the most popular posts (in fact, none of them were much more than average by the popularity metric), but these are the posts I’m most proud of / the ones that entertained [...]
Hey everyone. I’m pretty certain we screwed up, though to be honest, I’m not sure how much yet until I talk to the right folks. We posted something up this morning about Americans and their food portion sizes in comparison to Japan and their portion sizes / ways they eat. There were problems with this [...]
Photo by Orr Marshall Welcome to Tofugu’s first-ever Halloween week! With Halloween only about a week away, we thought we’d treat you guys with seven days of posts about scary, spooky, and creepy Japan-related things.
We’ve been working on our store for a while now, and it’s finally got to a point where we want to share it with you! You can check it out at store.tofugu.com, and there’s also a link to the store in the menu at the top of the page. So, what’s in the store right [...]
It’s been about a month since we launched our “Japanese Resources Page” – on it we say things like “blah-didy-blah japanese resource this that etc” but we thought it would be fun for you guys if we just put our money where our mouths are. Not all the resources on the Japanese Resources page are [...]
