What are your top 5 Japan related websites?

Here are mine:

1. www.jref.com
I'm sorry to put this on one, but this is the website I check everyday to discuss things about Japan, and other chit chat. Great Japan info, practical information and a lot of other stuff.

2. www.newsonjapan.com
Here is where I get all my Japan related news. This website chooses head lines from other websites and links them to them. Easy to see the latest and best new for me.

3. www.kfm.to
A Kansai related advertisements online magazine. Got a lot of Jobs in it, plus a lot of adds for friendship, and sales in the area.

4. www.jdorama.com
A website I always check when searching for the newest drama's actors and actress. Interesting website.

5. http://www.jorudan.co.jp/english/norikae/e-norikeyin.html
A website I always check for my train schedule. Because I have to travel to different places all the time this website is great to not come late!

We share the first two

1. www.jref.com

2. www.newsonjapan.com

3. www.WhatJapanThinks.com
Ken YN has been doing so really good things for the Japan-related web community. He did a Best Japan Blog of 2007 contest and is helping the JapanSoc project

Some new ones
4. www.nihonhacks.com
This is a really great idea in my opinion (kudos to Thomas). He gives tips on everyday living in Japan.

5. www.japansoc.com
Nick from longcountdown.com just started this site. It is digg.com for Japan-related news. I think this site will really help the Japan-related blogosphere.

Jref is cool, other sites I recommend are:

1. http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/wwwjdic.html
Jim Breen's WWWJDIC server, the best online J>E, E>J dictionary on the internet, has other cool things to help you learn Japanese.

2. http://www.dannychoo.com
Interesting blog of a foreigner living in Japan with a whole heap of information including how to set up a business in Japan.

3. http://www.debito.org
David Ardwinckle's blog, he's a very interesting guy with a passion for eliminating racial discrimination in Japan.

4. http://www.akihabaranews.com
Electronics news from akihabara, always interesting to see the latest to come out of Japan/Korea.

5. http://www.alc.co.jp
Another site useful for study. It enables you to search the massive Eijiro database.
