It is with great sadness that I pass on the news that Ben Miller,
founder of the JPNET list and a well known person in the Tokyo
community passed away at the end of February after suffering two brain
aneurysms.

Ben was a well connected person and a passionate researcher, most
recently spending a lot of his time on Web. 2.0, SNS and other online
services - many of which he posted about on his site:

The funeral has taken place but I will post to this list again as soon
as I have details of any other memorial services taking place or if a
web site is established in memory of Ben.

Please pass on the sad news to anyone who new Ben who you think may
not have heard. Ben's connections on LinkedIn can be seen here:

We'll all miss Ben.
