I learned about this not because I read Twitter a lot (I don’t!), but because of my preexisting interest in the historical kana usage, which I suppose proves that I<\/em> am a pimply nerd, etc. The Twitter cluster now has an official website<\/a> where they defend their odd hobby. I note that it is nowhere near as formidable-looking as its German equivalent<\/a>.<\/p>\n At least they have a website now!

Here’s what I came up with for Soseki’s Kokoro<\/em>:<\/p>\n I learned about this not because I read Twitter a lot (I don’t!), but because of my preexisting interest in the historical kana usage, which I suppose proves that I am a pimply nerd, etc. The Twitter cluster now has an official website where they defend their odd hobby.
