A very geeky Friday Fun Link.
Ever wonder about languages that use something other than alphabets or close analogs to alphabets? Ever wonder how those languages are going to survive in a modern world where technology developed for <em>very</em> different languages dominates? Yeah, me, too. I've often tried to imagine what a kanji typewriter-keyboard might look like, for instance. Well, now I don't need to wonder. Thanks to the website <a target="_blank" href="http://www.honco.net/japanese/index.html">Japanese in the Age of Technology</a>, I know what it looks like! This: <a target="_blank" href="http://www.honco.net/japanese/05/page1.html">Japanese Keyboards</a>.
Well, it might not be as "freaky" as my usual Friday Fun Link fare, but it's still cool, so click the link!
