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?

Purpose of this site
What I am hoping to get accomplished here is a mobile phone portal for baseball fans, like myself. Eventually for Japanese people, but I can’t read Japanese charactors with my phone, so it may take a while. I’ve got long way to go, I know, but I am going to get there…
