Kirainet.com - A geek in Japan — 6 months writing in English

6 months writing in English

Por kirai el 27 de June de 2007 en Kirainet

It’s been six months since I started translating posts from my Spanish blog into English. Good things are: I improved my English and started to know the English blog community in Japan, that means meeting new people and making new friends. Bad things: it is very boring to translate something you have already written.

This English version had 255.209 pageviews in six months, not bad, but ridiculous compared with the Spanish version that has now more than 11 millions pvs. I translated 133 posts, the most commented post is this one, you guys made 498 comments, that’s more than two comments per day. The visitors who made more comments were: Sheerblade, Jamaipanese and Brad.

Thanks a lot to all the people who made comments or participated in this blog’s conversation from their own blogs.

Kudos! 133 posts in six months means 22 per month… only in English, plus the Spanish ones! I don’t know how you get the time to do all this stuff, but hope you keep it up, man!
