Here are some tips for effectively browsing this website, and any other...

Get it Together

If you are using Internet Explorer, visit Browse Happy (link opens in new window). The friendly folks over there will guide you along in choosing a more dynamic, safe and friendly browser for all your surfing needs.

Tabs and Social Bookmarking

Skim and search your way through tweb content, locating information that you think might be useful. Instead of simply clicking straight through to any given resource or page, open them in new tabs and continue peeking around here and there.

Eventually, you will end up with a browser loaded with tabs that hold many treasures in store for you.

Now freely move through the tabs you have chosen, deciding which resources and pages are of real interest to you, and will be the most helpful in your specific learning phase, age, level, etc. If you are into social bookmarking (don't forget to open it in a new tab!), you will most certainly want to bookmark the best resources you come across for others to see, and for your own reference later on.

No Overload

If it gets to be too much, have a break. You don't want repetitive strain injuries (new tab!), to be sure. Give your eyes a rest. Have a breath and some water.

When you return to your tabs and bookmarks, delve a little deeper into the resources you have chosen. Complete a lesson or two, or read some nifty info about a language's history. Get into the info, evaluate the resources and choose the ones that are specifically going to help you and only you make the most effective progress.
