Livedoor - Bu log Post Doing

So, after the scandal surrounding Livedoor sent the Japanese stock market tumbling yesterday, I felt compelled to check out good old Livedoor. Might as well see what all the fuss was about.

Apparently, it's yet another web portal/search engine, a la Yahoo. The more interesting bit, here, is that Google apparently has quite of bit of work to do on their Japanese-to-English translation engine...



As on this side of the Pacific, it's clear that everybody has their own Bu log site.

According to googletrans, new items of interest include:

Now in the midst of brain age check execution of attention!
and
The change of occupation technique which the change of occupation success person has known?

Slightly more comprehensively, under the heading of "The male be completed information", they offer what appears to be an auto price guide: "Your love car now how much? The free online assessment"

And of course, in their targeted ad spot, (that's a "Livedoor searching attention word" for you, google translation reader), we are tempted by an offer of:
Hot towel noodles Byakuya line Of Yoshikawa poults Circulation of rumor Amino collagen

Who could possibly turn that down? (More interestingly, after clicking on the link, I gather that "hot towel noodles" is actually a transliteration, because it returns a bunch of food sites. I found a site that includes a sort-of english recipie for them. "While on the present board, to do the dusting powder, you spread to the thickness about of 2 millimeters with the rolling pin.")

Nifty...
