What websites do Japanese people use?

Question:


What social networking and video websites do people in Japan use? Do they use Facebook, or is there a Japanese alternative?

What video sharing websites do they use as well? Do they use YouTube or a Japanese website?

What other websites are popular? And which email service do they usually use? Here in the UK we usually use Hotmail or MSN. What about you guys?

Answer:


social networking: Mixi, Gree and Mobage town are the 3 most popular social networks in Japan. Foreign networks like Facebook are not popular. But Facebook alone is getting slightly popular.

Video: Youtube and Nico Nico Douga (Japanese site) are the 2 most popular video sites. I don't know which one is more popular. But NND is getting popular rapidly.

email: Hotmail and Yahoo are the 2 most popular ones. Both Japanese version, I mean.
