In NY, GPS tracking systems in cars are big. The guys that drive me home at night all have them. Its funny though, I sometimes correct the machine because it always attempts to go by the shortest distance which many times drives you straight into traffic.
Lost with these machines will be the adventure of getting lost.

Good Morning Mina-san~~~
It has been really really busy week for me, but it’s all good though.
I like to drive own my car. When I go to Korea, first thing miss from US is driving my car without traffic.
Yesterday, I talked my younger brother who lives in Korea. I didn’t know he studies or knows Japanese. We were able to talk abit of Japanese instead of Korean on the phone.
Guess what guys, my brother is going to Japan next month for business trip.
It must be nice eh?
Have a great day!

Cassidy-san, thanks for an idea for a lesson! A guy and his GPS has real potential! Also, my friend has one here that actually takes traffic into account.
Vicky-san, ohisashiburi! Where in Japan is your brother going?
Friday at 12:39 am
Peter-san and Team!
And, by the way, I am still wondering how you write these wonderful stories!
I have heard you refer to “the writers”, but, somehow, I think that’s you, ne?
Another great lesson!

はじめまして、初めてここに書き込みするジンと申します。
11月18日に、東京国際大学の外国人の入学試験を受けます。最近日本語を聴くことが心配になって、聴く練習ができるサイトを探しました。
このサイトを見つけました!
とてもいい体系と思って、本当に感動しています。
でも、質問があります。近い未来に、上級教訓を作る予定がありますか? njuku.comで上級レッソンが勉強できるけど、このサイトのように、語彙や文法や分の色んな部分を分析していません。
上級レッソンを楽しみに待っています。
ありがとうございます!

Excuse me, did I miss something?
Who was that other guy in the dialogue?
Friday at 1:30 pm
I mean it was Yoshi-san and someone else.

Peter-san, I love the iLearning feature. The install was slightly different for iTune v7, but essentially the same. Just some different icons and such. Works like a champ.

can anyone tell me what function the なん in 男は単純なんだから serves… is it similar to the explanatory のです?
Wednesday at 6:30 pm
ええと、ちょっと待ってください。右、左、どっち?また迷ってるの。いや、迷ってない、ただ方向確かめるの。迷ってる。でも、大丈夫。私はわかってるから。まっすぐ行こう。まっすぐ?違うよ。右に曲がろう。右じゃない。よししゃん拳で決めよう。しゃん拳ぽん。右、お前いつも出すの一緒だよな。もう、男は単純なんだから。
また、明日。
