It takes a bit of practice and the translation from Japanese requires a fair bit of interpretation, but it can be helpful with sidebars and other editorial content. I've used it a bit in the last few months with my Tanteidan subscription and Japanese books and found it worthwhile. You will find it slow going, but it does allow you to enjoy your book collection in a new way. Good luck! Scott
