I’ve been working behind the scenes with other members of JapanSoc to revive the old Japan Blog Matsuri. This is a monthly blog “carnival” where given a theme to write about, bloggers everywhere are invited to share their stories with everyone else. It’s a great opportunity to find new blogs and attract new readers to your own.
Organization and Announcements
The Japan Blog Matsuri Newsroom is where things are being organized, and I can now tell you that the first matsuri of the revival will be hosted in August at The Tokyo Traveler.
Shane has published a Japan Blog Matsuri announcement naming the theme and submission details, so if you’re interested, swing by her blog to learn more!

I just saw the goatee shot…not sure it’s you, but it’s different
I can’t wait to see all of the great posts that kick off the new Japan Blog Matsuri. Thanks for being the man behind it all!
Looks like good idea Nick, from what i can understand of it at the moment, will have to read the full back ground shortly.
Hey Nick,
Just saw your special effects pics on the top right … I think it’s cool. Also, I am not sure about this but site looks little different and cleaner than last time. Keep up the good work.

I like the idea. A great place for new bloggers to publish their blogs.
Hi Nick,
Thanks for the revival! I’ve updated my page, as someone decided to Stumble it today, which was enough of a kick in the bum for me to get editing!
Thanks Ken!
I wonder if you can find a survey about “Tokyo first impressions”? I’m sure you’ll come up with something!
