I love abusing metaphors. But! That is completely irrelvant to what I actually intend to say. Pushing the Sky has now been settled for a good month, and it’s time to slowly expand the sprawl. Two plans I’ve hatched already are a forum and a Japanese version of the blog. What I’d like is a small indication of how much interest there is in either of these - more so the forum.

The Japanese blog is to get me to keep my Japanese ability somewhere near practised, and it will be more than just a pure translation - indeed, I hope that most of the time it isn’t a translation, but rather a different expression of ideas because of the language they’re being expressed in. That and I don’t think my Japanese is quite good enough.

So, the forum: chances are I’ll put it up regardless just to bring some variety to the site, as well as provide a forum for conversation, but I know how hard my pervious attempt at forums stagnated. Is there interest?
