    Hi,

    I am new at Digital Point forum. I can see everyone is quite active here. Hopefully I can learn something new everyday :)

    I just started a website with my name
    http://www.kuanhoong.com

    For the past 2 years, I was using Blogger as my blogging platform. I blog almost everything related to Japan, technology and gadgets related. However, I find it is time to get my own domain as progress from there.
    http://www.myproblogger.blogspot.com

    Thanks

    Hey do you know where I can get some nice Samurai Sword? But original not the fake imitations ... I was training in Kioko-Shin-Kai for 10 years now and I got second level black belt and since I started I wanted to visit Japan and buy myself one :)

    Wow so fast I received two replies. Members here are very heart warming.

    Venetsian : About the samurai sword, it is possible to get a real good sword but it is quite expensive.

    Well, I have seen a fairly good sword cost around USD1000 and there are much expensive swords .. depending what is your budget.

    I am no sword expert :D

    I guess 1,000 is not much especially after the fact that I buy such price telephones two times per year and sword will be for ever :)

    Niceee.... so if I start new website (within a month) I might be able to rise those money from Ads for about year, maybe two .. so .. yep .. I'm not in a hurry :)

    Cheers and 10x for the info.

    Venetsian.

    Man, I have a friend from my university that was in love with ANIME. He had piles of anime in his dorm. His dream was to go to japan a study his masters there .. so what happened was that he really got accepted there with full scholarship and now he lives in Japan for the last 5 years :) man-o-man!

    Cheers,

    Venetsian.
