Tokyo – October 2, 2007 – GMO Internet yesterday launched the 2008 edition of the goal-setting schedule planner, Yume Techo ☆ Kumagai Shiki (Dream Planner ☆ Kumagai Style).
Masatoshi Kumagai, author of Issatsu no Techo de Yume wa Kanarazu Kanau (Realize your dreams with one notebook) [Kanki Publishing], believes that a planner is more than just a space for managing work and time.
