This is a reblog from Mimi Ito's blog, with the summary and live links to the full paper produced by the Digital Youth Project she has led so ably for the past three years.   It also includes links to summaries and press releases.  Congratulations to Mimi and her team!  And special thanks, as usual, for the leadership of the MacArthur Foundation in making real research, not baseless punditry, the starting place for serious thinking and serious conversation.  Here's the link to Mimi's blog: http://www.itofisher.com/mito/weblog/2008/11/living_and_learning_with_ne...

Tokyo time, again.  I wrote a travel memoir a few years ago about living in the Kansai area of Japan, outside of Kobe, called 36 Views of Mt Fuji:  On Finding Myself in Japan.  It's my book and I'm sticking by it!   But, well, lately, my travels take me annually to Tokyo . . . I am bedazzled!
