Colophon
This website is the personal web journal of Paul Davidson, intended primarily as a place to jot down discoveries made during the course of learning Japanese and living in Nagoya, Japan.
In addition to maintaining this site, Paul also works as a writer for IGN FilmForce and as a freelance graphic designer.
This website currently runs on Textpattern blogging software. Graphics were created in Adobe Photoshop. HTML coding was done using skEdit. Some functionality for the author’s furigana-parsing script is provided by Sam Stephenson’s Prototype Libraries. The rounded box corners you see on some pages are generated with Alessandro Fulciniti’s Nifty Corners Javascript.
For tracking visitors and site statistics, this website uses Shaun Inman’s excellent product Mint.
Japanese for Life works in all modern browsers but looks best in Safari on OS X thanks to its superior web standards support and excellent font smoothing.
