some idea about how we will work.

TGIF!

Hello. This is Hiroki. I post this entry to show my idea about how we will work on this blog. This entry may be deleted after we start to work on that since we do not need this any more.

First, these are entries that I think we need as follows;

・main page
This is an entry which has links to other entries so that we can find an entry we want. Is it called a 'entry' or a 'post'?

・time line
We need to set time line. So one entry is used for showing our time line.

Do we really need these entries? Please comment on that.

Second, my thought about how we will post entries.

We could have entries for each part or person to put info related to your parts. It can be for each part or person. In other word, every parts or people have their own pages and we will put info on those entries.

Yet, if we post entries about a lot of things, we do not have to stick to one entry which is devoted to yourself or parts. For example, we will post as many entries as many entires as needed and there will be a lot of entries.

Which is better?

I think we could have our own entries on which we will post things only related to your parts, such as funeral. And if we find useful info or creative idea, we can post a new entries no matter what.

Is it clear what I mean? Please put your comments.

After all, I would like you to put your comments on two things. One is about entries what we need. Another is about how we will post entries.

I hope it is clear what I mean. If not, plaese ask me:)
Have a good weekend!

Hiroki

p.s. How do we know any of us post a new entry?

Purpose of this blog



This blog will function as a place of inspiration to share our research about Japanese religion. We are students at Kyoto University taking the course Intercultural Understanding, for which we have to produce a group project. This group got together because of our common interest in Japanese religion. We have started a research in this field, which we will have to present at the end of the semester. This blog will show our development towards the final presentation.
Hopefully this will be an inspirational platform by which we can share our discoveries with people around the world.
