11 a.m. Roundup: Twitter Goes to Japan | Ex Owner Anschutz Profiled | Merc Columnists' Latest 'Why We Matter' Entry | NYT Recognizes Litquake

By Jason Turbow on Oct 19, 2009 02:00 PM

  • People in Japan can now happily tweet away; Twitter has released its first foreign-language program, in Japanese. More languages are expected within months.

  • The San Francisco Peninsula Press Club points us toward a profile of San Francisco Examiner owner Philip Anschutz in Politico. Turns out he's -- brace yourself -- conservative.

  • In his latest column directed at readers concerned about the state of the San Jose Mercury News and journalism in general, Mike Cassidy reviews what exactly the Merc does, and why it's important.

  • The New York Times took a brief look at Lit Crawl, Litquake's final-night event.
