We went to San Francisco for presentation. Our work won the praise of early adapter, just as art. In 2001, we tried to make commercial web site “Kanshin Kukan” again. Our work won the praise of early adapter in Japan. We got “Good Design award” in 2001 and Web Creation Award in 2006 as a pioneer of Japanese CGM. Now I'm interested
