Good Japanese Websites for Wasting Time? - datrukup - 2014-07-30

I've been looking for some good websites similar to Reddit in Japanese. Are there any other good websites that have bite-sized reads (other than 2ch and futuba-channel)?

I've found some websites such as http://togetter.com/ and http://bokete.jp/

Some of my favorite pleasure reads:

Expat living in France. Writes about international marriages, cultural differences between Japan and other countries, etc. Great stuff.

As previously mentioned. Not a scrap of socially redeeming content on the site. It's great brain candy.

A great balance of serious news content - including original analysis by Japanese bloggers - alongside the usual clickbait trash that HuffPo publishes. Occasionally good opinion pieces about Japanese lifestyle and work life to boot.

A "premium content" e-mail service that sends out a new article about once a week as an enticement to subscribe to their gated content. Topics range from politics to the recent 美味しんぼ controversy to the success of FROZEN in Japan.

I hate the Huffing & Puffington Post. Too much left-wing bias. (I'm speaking of the US version; maybe the Japanese language version doesn't have this left-wing bias).
