Update No.1

Over two years ago this blog was started. Then I forgot about it and nobody ever bothered to look at it. I am not a blogger at heart but sell books, a business that may be dying. So I must look at what I have been doing for decades and try to chart a path, however short, toward the future. I am not really in the travel guidebook business though Lonely Planet accounted for more than 60% of my sales a few years ago. Actually I am in the information business. I sell useful (not literary) information products from outside this country to Japanese and I export information products from Japan to Americans and other foreigners overseas.
Maybe I will reply with some useful opinion if you comment. Anyway, I hope to use this blog as a way to express stray thoughts and to hear what (if anything) people have to say.
Cheers
