Covering the economic and industrial might of Japan

In the introduction to this series we decided to take a look at what the Japan-related web is, what it could be, and why it matters.

In part 1 of the series we will look at that first question: What is the Japan-related web?

In Japanese the Kanji character for “to understand” (wakaru) and the character for “to divide” (wakeru)  are the same. So to really understand the Japan-related web maybe we should divide it into its parts. To do that we will need to ask some questions.

First of all, we need to know, what kinds of sites are there? I propose that, whether big or small, most sites offer one or a combination of the following:

News, entertainment, services & web-tools, instruction & education, personal

If you disagree or have extras to add, be sure to comment.

We will study these seven categories closely throughout the first part of this series.
