Thursday, May 1, 2008 Social media language study suggestion posted at 8:27 AM I think it would be cool if a bunch of people studying a language would go out and take photos of signs written entirely in that language and upload them somewhere (probably Flickr, people always use Flickr for this sort of thing) and tag them so others can find them. Then we would have a huge group of real-life flash cards that we could use on our computers to familiarize ourselves with the vocabulary found on signs. It could be place names, common warnings, business names, sales, things like that. Basically, the idea is to give vocabulary (and how to write it) relevance. I put some rather mediocre photos from 2001 up to start.

Well, デジ太 went to the 8th International Model Railroad Convention at Tokyo Big Site and took some actual miniature photography :D Check it out.

And I'm the photographer! This is more than a little crazy, and I'm more than a little nervous. I think my technique has improved, but I still mainly take detail and landscape photos. Here's hoping I can use some of what I've learned to capture the beauty of the dancers. Right now that seems like a pretty monumental task! So yeah, maybe I should go to bed already...
