Today's Webtip: Yokosonews

Real time coverage live from Japan. In English.

Twitter? Check. Facebook? Of course. Ustream?

Yep. Add another tool to the list of interesting ways to keep up to date on breaking events. Although ustream has been around for awhile, I think this might be the biggest story it has played an active role in.

Yokosonews started out as a weekly stream covering Japanese culture for people who don't speak the language. Now it's a full (well, almost) time stream sharing native news coverage of the events in Japan.
