The Way of the Samurai News is my mini-journal about the site and the samurai.
It...
- lets you know whenever any new Web pages appear on Way of the Samurai, telling you about a new article or sword review...
- keeps you up-to-date with other postings or news about the Samurai (like the latest museum exhibition, movie or new sword on the market!)
- points out some of my articles, training advice, sword reviews and more that you might otherwise miss
- lets you know when I send out the Way of the Samurai Newsletter (in case you don't like to give your e-mail address, or if your ISP tends to over-filter causing you to miss an issue).
To subscribe to my Samurai blog (no e-mail address necessary), RIGHT-click on the orange RSS button and then copy-and-paste the URL of this site's RSS feed into your RSS reader. OR...
Or click on the Google, My Yahoo!, My MSN, or Bloglines button if you keep a personalized home page there. Follow their instructions.

Once you start, you will be amazed at how RSS brings your world to you.
