First, for their invaluable technical expertise and exhaustive tutorials :
Htmlgoodies.com; I learned the ABC's (and much more) of HTML here under the generous and entertaining tutorship of Dr. Joe Burns and co. Terrific online resource that covers everything from basic HTML to DHTML and Javascript.
Dynamic Drive; excellent DHTML code archive located here with many free and very neat DHTML codes.
The JavaScript Source; seemingly countless number of Javascript codes available for free use. A very helpful resource.

Secondly (but in no way subordinate), thank-yous to friends and acquaintances :
Takayama Miyuki; not really an acquaintance, since she most likely has no idea who I am, but a deep thank-you for her meticulously thought-out song translations. I modeled my own translations after her clear and elegant design, and I hope to one day be able to express the meanings of the Japanese language into English as precisely and wonderfully as she does.
TheRavenSeeker; a once-frequent purveyor of a certain on-line program, and with whom I had several pleasant and engaging on-line chats. A very generous individual who shares my passion for karaoke music. =)
Aijinn; my connection to Germany and all of the fascinating culture and people within. Also the author of several CD reviews featured on this site.
You; for visiting okui-masami.net, especially those of you who have been able to write to me with feedback or suggestions, or to tell me your musical passions and experiences, or just to report a broken link. Thank you for your time, and please continue to visit this site in the future.

And, of course :
Okui Masami; for showing me what good music is all about.
