What's the Deal with YouTube in Japan? with YouTuber and MyChan app leader Hikosaemon
In this episode, New Zealand-born Hikosaemon talks about the experience of growing up an "army brat" and moving around the world a lot. He shared about how he established his life in Japan and how the online community (especially YouTube) has evolved and grown and been a part of his non-work life for more than 10 years. His projects and interests span many fields, including music, video, and, most recently, app development. Hiko talked about MyChan, a service he has developed to help people organize their YouTube subscriptions and get more enjoyment out of the YouTube experience.
