    Quite a few people from Germany it seems.

    Jay-san, the weird thing is that it can find the small town I went to school at (which is what I ended up using), but it can’t find the freakin’ capital city. :???:

    Very fun idea :mrgreen:

    Hello All.
    I have added myself to frapper.com…But only for a little while. I never feel 100 per-cent secure with such things.
    David Hallgren I have noticed that you live in Kodaira, which is the same area my friend lives.

    Mmmmm! I have removed myself from fropper…Sorry….the more I thought aboput it the less comfortable I felt about it…Not sure if I really like the idea of people knowing where I live….I live in the UK…that is all anyone needs to know.

  9. avatar Nate Says:

    Very cool.

    steve: Uhm, you dont have to put the needle on the top of your own roof… You could put it on the parlament or your local cityhall or the house of that guy you never liked or whatever… :cool:

    Jason-san, we’ll get frapper on that :wink:

    Jay-san, thanks for the New Zealand tac! Great to have you :grin:

    Bennity-san, yes, hello to all our German listeners :grin:

    Nathan-san, 9:00?

    Nate-san, how are you? :grin:

    Steve-san, glad I saw the picture of your beautiful family before you took it down :sad: Why not pick your favorite place in Japan? That seems cool to me :grin: I also live in Kodaira, next building from David.

    Steve-san,

    I saw where you lived before you took it down, and I am currently re-programming my missile guidance computers :wink:

    Jonas-san,

    I moved the needle from the zip code default to on top of my room :wink:

    Peter-san :razz:

    Aaaah! come on chaps…You mis-understand…I am not to bothered about chaps and chapettes from this community seeing where in the UK I live…I get paranoid about people just searching through….It does concern me.
    Nathan-san….fire away….The insurance money will come in handy…I would like a new home. Hehehehe!
    Peter-san. Maybe I will do has you suggest.

  14. avatar Nathan Says:

    Steve-san,

    It is understandable! Being cautious with information like that is not unfounded. In fact, I am sure that if I had a family and children, it would be of much more concern to me. I think that Peter-san’s idea was good, as well, though. You can represent yourself in a completely safe way :grin:

  15. avatar steve Says:

    Ok Paranoid Steve here…Hehehehehe!
    I have reposted myself on Frapper…thought it best not have my family photo just my photo. Maybe I over reacted a little. But anyway…I am on there now.
    Plus I also noticed that my blog as the town I live in also…..D’OH!!!!

  25. avatar Nathan Says:

    nongton-san,

    Hajimemashite! Welcome to the community! I know we have at least one more Thai listener that used to frequent the community a good bit - Chanun-san. I’m sure you can find lots of friends here, as all of our listeners are absolutely great!

    Yoroshiku onegaishimasu! :grin:

    Hey Peter.. Sakura and Natsuko (and others!)

    Hajimemashite! Genki desu ka?! Ive been listening to your pod casts for the last few weeks now and am really enjoying them.. (its the only cast I listen to !) Its so nice to hear you guys chatting in botyh English and Japanese, as I miss hearing it. I spent two months in Japan last summer and can’t wait to return and try out my newly learnt phrases! Keep the phrases, lessons and jokes coming. Arigato Gozimasu!
