About Japundit
JAPUNDIT is a social bookmarking site that gives you an instant overview of the most popular English language articles about Japan and the other countries of East Asia. Basically, social bookmarking allows members to post links to articles or sites so others can view and evaluate them. In many ways, JAPUNDIT is similar to the popular Digg.com site.
Acceptable submissions to JAPUNDIT include blog posts, mainstream news articles, and just about anything else that has to do with JAPAN or East Asia. To submit a story to JAPUNDIT, you first need to register (for free). Check out our FAQ here for details about how to register, submit stories, vote, etc.
