> Good point. I don’t know “taking off” is the correct word, but as you mentioned, it’s still growing. I can see several reasons why you think Japanese content has been increasing in the Web. First, some students use Emacs in their university because their teacher also uses Emacs. Then, the students use Emacs to write papers for graduation. I know a super student. He wrote his thesis using Emacs with org-mode! After graduation, they will be programmers, engineers, and researchers with high-level technical skills enough to distribute their knowledge through their blog and twitter. Second, We have several workshops related to Emacs and org-mode. At least, two workshops are held a few times a year at Kyoto and Tokyo. The participants of the workshops write blog entries and release some emacs-lisp actively. An Emacs advent calendar is a good example. Finally, we have many Japanese translated materials, manual, tutorial, org-web, and twitter bot, to know org-mode quickly and easily. And of course, the primary reason is that org-mode is very useful tool to do anything with Emacs :-)

>> There seems to be (and has been for a while) a growing Japanese presence online with orgmode materials, documentation, addons, etc. Most recenlty I found this blog: http://paper.li/highfrontier/1300501273 . I had also noticed many of the page titles on the orgmode website/wiki had Japanese content. This has me curious. Does anyone know the story of what's causing it to take off in Japan, or whether "taking off" is even the right word? Is it just a few people or a department at a university that are using it?
