By daigo | Published: Friday, January 28, 2005

I did a major backend upgrade and most everything is database-driven. Pretty cool. I am just learning so much about php/mysql stuff. [...]

By daigo | Published: Monday, January 10, 2005

By daigo | Published: Wednesday, January 5, 2005

  • Welcome…

    ...to Daigo’s Daily Digital Diorama. This is utterly useless online journal (yes, that was what it was originally called before term "blog") that I've been keeping since 2002. Since it is ".org," my wife once called it a nonprofit nonsense. I use this blog mostly about baseball, and being Japanese man in America. Wondering who the heck Daigo is?
