In Japan the most popular social network is not MySpace nor Facebook, the most wanted web is a local and professional net who was born thanks to the incentive of Kenji Kasahara, a creator of web pages, which first failed with a job net website but he decided to create Mixi that invite people by e-mail to participate in it. Today, after four years, has more than 12 million users and is second visited web site, only exceeded by YouTube in visit’s numbers.

His address is www mixi jp, and according to the latest statistics counts with 80 por percent of social networks market in Japan. Another significant feature of this social network is that it is only for adults over 18 years and all people share common interests.

On the other hand, although the name mixi is derived from english language (I mix) there is only one version of this web in Japanese, and even those who are register can do it only if they have a e- mail account in that language. This has brought to mixi hundreds of criticism, because they ensure that this web is racist none wants foreigners to join this social network.
