    • About This SiteAbout this Website This blog is about John’s Life and his passion towards the Japanese Pop Culture (Otaku Culture). Boring history about this website… [spoiler] John started blogging back in year 2005 after he joined the internet bandwagon. He was running JohnDiew0107 on Microsoft’s blogging platform – MSN Spaces which later re-branded as Windows Live Spaces (WLS), it was September 2005. On August 2007, he signed up a blog at wordpress.com – JohnDiew0107.wordpress.com. After he used both Wordpress and WLS blogging platforms for a few months, he came to a conclusion – to close down his Windows Live Space and move over to Wordpress. The decision that made on May 2008 introduced John into the world of Internet, professionals, and technology. August 2010, he registered a domain – johndiew0107.com and it helped him to boost his site’s readership to 7000 unique clicks per month. Unfortunately it only went well for a year, until he had several issues with the domain registrar company, which he later decided to dump that domain name. August 2011, he started self-hosting his blog and johndiew.com/blog marks the brand new starting for him. Here’s a simple timeline history of JohnDiew.com 2005 September – Hello world! 2007 August…
