This site has two RSS feeds to alert visitors to changes,
rss.xml,
that is updated immediately in concert with the News box,
and rss-blog.xml,
that is carries the exact same information, but is only updated
when there's a blog translation in the mix.
Updates to this site are also announced on a
Twitter feed
and on a
Facebook page.
(Keiko herself only has her blog. Read this fraud warning if you think otherwise.)
Comments
You can leave comments with the newest entries, but please be nice.
There's only a tiny chance of Keiko visiting this site,
but if she does then we want her to enjoy it, don't we?

To see either the

pages of
KEIKO'S BLOG
or the
Audience Rating TV
site translated, first add the bookmarklet
Translate Kitagawa Keiko site
to your bookmarks or favourites.
(Drag it to your bookmarks bar, or right click and choose
"Bookmark This Link" or "Add to Favorites".)
Now when you visit these places you can run the bookmarklet on each
page and it will be translated in place.
(The bookmarklet uses a handcrafted text replacement table
that is updated around
20:00 CET if needed.)
Resources
The maintainer of this site would be lost without these:
The wonderful free Japanese-English dictionary. I seldom need
query it directly, because the tools I use most of the time
have the WWWJDIC dictionary built in.
Extensions for Firefox and Chrome that do WWWJDIC lookups of
Japanese words as you move your mouse over them. I've made
a little example to
show you their power.
The online portal to the
Eijirō
database of English-Japanese translations. It contains
1.5 million entries of not just dictionary definitions, but
also an enormous number of example sentences. It's a treasure
trove for Japanese learners who want to know how a word is
actually used. (Also for Japanese learners of English, as
it works both ways.)
I confess, when I'm at the end of my rope, I will even stoop
so low as to use automated translators. Even if all four
produce total gibberish, as they usually do, they may still
give me a clue on how to decode something. (On the Japanese
sites you need to select the
日⇒英 or
和英
option before clicking
翻訳.)
