Anybody know any good blogs about Japan & life there (like ex-pat blogs)? The higher-traffic the better.

Metropolis is a good English Japan net magazine. Its a bit on the bitter side sometimes, but its good to see a "Everything is not Rainbows and Farts" view of Japan. Tokyo Damage Report is another classic. Its a Gaijin's view of seedy Tokyo. Plus a lot of bizare reviews of punk shows and oddball tradeshows Metropolis

I like this one: http://blue_moon.typepad.com/.

It's written by a Canadian woman married to a Japanese guy and living near Tokyo. Mainly about food but it does touch on other aspects of life in Japan. Her page also has a whole load of links to other Japan-related sites.
