Sorry for the inconvenience!
I've been quite busy lately and there a few reasons for that. But one of the m is because I'll be getting married in June, but also leaving the country in less than 2-weeks.That's right, I'll be getting married in the Philippines and will be staying there for over a month. I'm very excited about this and so excited that I cannot hide it. hahaAs for Jappleng, why haven't I updated it? Well... A few reasons. First reason is that I decided to re-take programming courses from the ground-up and I learned a lot from these classes even some of the fundamentals that I didn't quite grasp before. Second is since I'm getting married, what happens afterwards? How much time do I have to work on Jappleng, what should I do about work? And how can I get anywhere without a college degree? Well, I had a lot to think about while studying and of course I'll keep working on the site but for the next month and a half, that won't really happen.For the most part, the site is complete, it just needs user generated content, which is from you guys! Now, if user generated content doesn't pickup, Jappleng will have to turn either corporate or non-profit. It's not an ultimatum, it's just how it is. It's free because it's made for all of you and hopefully generated by you. Kind of like wikipedia.
When am I leaving? In less than two-weeks.
When am I getting married? Early June.
Where am I getting married? Philippines
When will Jappleng be used a lot by most people? Don't know. Japan hasn't had a good reputation in the past 7-years, so it lost its interest almost completely. Even anime fans aren't enough to sustain Jappleng but perhaps we can help make Japan popular and favored again!
When are the next updates? When I come back at the end of June, I'll update the site for a full two-weeks to complete it entirely and then I'll only update it part-time while advertising.
Give up on Jappleng already! NEVER!!!!!
