who comprises the sneakernet?

Men. Women. Boys. Girls. Fans of visual novels. Translators of eroge. Players of games. Readers of writing. People who go by pseudonyms corresponding to obscure Korean handheld consoles and certain glycoproteins on virus envelopes. Those who love the snow and those who cannot wait to feel the spring come to them. Owners of dogs. Humans owned by their cats. Revelers in the synaesthesia everywhere and worshippers of the light fantastic. You. And me.

who are you?

We are insani, a small circle dedicated to the localization of Japanese visual novels into English. As of the writing of this document (18 May 2006), we are one of the leaders of this particular field: we have a two-year record of highly-regarded complete translations, we have had a large hand in making the visual novel scripting engine NScripter accessible to the English-speaking audience, and we have been the founders, first coordinators, and prime participants of the translation festival al|together.
