Press: Mobile phone novels on CNN
Last week we had the pleasure of talking at length with CNN about Japanese mobile phone novels, how the trend manifested itself, and where it’s going from here.
Click below to read all about keitai shousetsu (mobile phone novels) and their unique imprint on the Japanese media landscape in the last couple of years.
We explored the topic previously on-camera with German ZDF.

saw the ZDF report a few month ago its really interesting, cant believe how someone could write a whole book on a tiny cellphone keypad with that small screen. Our western counterpart is probably twitter I wonder how long it will take until we get a best selling book based on twitters I once heard a german poem made entirely out of “tweets” was pretty good. Since I’ve got my blackberry I’m writing much more twitters than before.
