Facebook in Japanese
Noticed this little box when I signed into Facebook recently. (I sort of avoid it…) You now have the option to switch the entire site over into Japanese (or a selection of other languages). I figured that this was on the way, having posted about a banner that popped up in Japanese a while back. Anyway, if you’re a Facebook user and you’re studying Japanese, it’s a great way to get some more reinforcement in. And invite all of your Japanese friends who can’t be bothered with English language menus too, since they’ll have no issues now. 
If you’re interested in social networking, especially in Japan, you might want to check out Mixi, as well. It’s the number one social networking site here. If you missed it, Koichi over at Tofugu wrote about how to go about making more friends using Mixi. Read it and get on the bandwagon!
