myGengo is hiring Interns! We are looking to hire one or two amazing, multilingual individuals who fit the following:
Most people start their year on the 1st of January. In keeping with Japanese custom, this year I’ve decided to start a fresh look on April 1st. My wonderful girlfriend, business partner, and personal sanity-checker whipped together this new design in an afternoon after being fed-up with the bland previous theme.

I haven’t posted in quite a while, mostly due to a number of social, career, and otherwise life-changing events. So a big thank you to those still hanging around M@Blog!
