Facebook KanjiRecog page


There are several new posts on recall and recognition of Japanese characters over at Facebook.com/kanjiRecog.

At the same time, work is progressing on a variety of kanji, kotoba, jukugo and related app's using Curl markup from www.curl.com and www.curlap.com (Japanese site.)

This is MIT Curl, the expression-based web language from M.I.T. in Cambridge, MA,  and not cURL !
