Google Search: idol location:japan
In an effort to understand more about Japanese culture (as outdated a picture as it probably presents), I have checked out a stack of books from the library. Right now I'm reading through The Encyclopedia of Japanese Pop Culture. Its interesting reading about the major historical forces in Japanese popular culture, and once I can understand Japanese, I would like to watch some of the classical shows.
In a convenient coincidence, google just released customizable google news, so I can stay abreast of current events. They key is location, like Google Search: idol location:japan, and as long as there is a good English language source, it works quite well.
Incidentally, it took me a while to massage all the words in this entry to their proper spelling... on occasion, I find that I can't get a word close enough for the spell-checker to correct. I wish they worked better... perhaps even a learning one, because there is probably a pattern to words I misspell. Usually google search can save me, though it is amusing that search does a better job correcting spelling than define:.
