Yes, you're right. I could add facebook here. When I wrote this post, facebook was not popular yet. ^ ^;;

Welcome to TKE blog. ^__^
I think you will find Japanese culture so interesting. Have you visited Japan before? If not, I do recommend that you come in Spring, when Sakura (cherry blossoms) are in full bloom. Eat our food, explore Onsen (hot spring) and Hanami (viewing Sakura) as well as visit many wonderful places throughout the country. Just avoid summer, which is not just hot but humid. But if you are used to such weather, summer is also good in terms of Hanabi (fire works), Matsuri and many local festivals.

I think the Japanese who have foreign friends are not shy. I'm talking about majority of Japanese who usually don't have foreign friends. Let alone, those Japanese who were raised in a foreign country are quite different from the ones who were raised in Japan.

I haven't tried any of those websites, but I thought I would state my opinion. My Japanese friends are very open, not shy at all !! In fact, they're the most outgoing of the group~
I'm not sure if this is just who I'm friends with, but they include japanese raised in australia, international students and foreign exchange students.
They are not what you would describe as "otaku" but, does it really play that much of a difference whether they are or not?
