I'm a missionary in Japan. The name of my mission agency is WEC International. That's supposedly Worldwide Evangelisation for Christ, but I think I have a better idea about what it stands for...

Blogging in two languages
I'm expanding Glob, my blogging software, to enable me to blog in two languages. I really respect Martin and Hazel and their bilingual blog, and I want to do the same. Not just for the integrity of knowing that you're not "talking about anyone behind their back", but also because I have a bunch of Japanese friends who get my blog (syndicated via Mixi, a Japanese social networking site) and would probably find it easier to read in Japanese than in English. Also it'll be good for my language skills!
I've done the first stage of hacking, which makes it a bit easier for me to create and edit blog posts, but now I have to think how to do the data model: not all my posts will be in English and Japanese - some will be just English, some just Japanese, some both. There should be a preferred language, and the option to switch. Don't worry, it'll default to English if Japanese isn't selected. :) Expect falling masonry for the next day or two...
