I would have thought that, in the same way a good jam session will bear fruit in a well constructed tune, the 140-character soup that Twitter is would materialize in everybody's blogposts being more frequent and/or more informed. It's not just the Neojaponisme crowd. This negative correlation is everywhere. [soapbox rant ends] Anyhow, I like your podcasts, and I also hope to read the articles you mention above.

Residents, if there even ARE any, get from "place" to "place" by bicycle, naked, in the dark. Although I will say, in response to the implied accusation of frivolity, that it'd be cool to see a neoj panel about the election and aftermath.

Still pushing the "crazy Tokyo, look at the lights and the trains and all the fashion" idea ? More of the usual superfluous crap then.
