After keeping it on the back burner for way too long, I felt I should finally make this project public, no matter how unpolished:<\/p>\n
KanjiStory.com<\/a><\/strong> is a website geared towards people studying Japanese kanji (and, I guess, to a lesser extent, Chinese… but it probably needs some tuning for that). It provides a simple yet powerful interface for people to write kanji mnemonics in the form of a simple story<\/a>. <\/p>\n The best way to see what I mean is to go register<\/a> (10 seconds, one click), read a few stories<\/a> and finally: take a stab at writing your own<\/a>. Allowing users to contribute stories is at least 90% of the point of this website at this stage, so please<\/em> do not just go, check out the dozen sample stories and call it a day without trying the editor.<\/p>\n The current version of the website, although quite spiffy code-wise, needs a huge amount of work to be called a proper beta. And then, there are two million cool features just waiting to be added. However, given my very limited time resources, I figured I would first check to see how much interest (and<\/em> active participation) in the project I can raise, before committing any more time working on it.<\/p>\n Do not hesitate to post your comments and suggestions below, but keep in mind that this is all very early-stage development and that many new features will come, once (if) this ever takes off the ground as a community project.<\/p>\n As an aside, if you are a reasonably experienced PHP dev with an interest in contributing to this project: get in touch (use the address: \u201czedrdave\u201d at Google\u2019s mail).<\/p>\n
