exchange

VoxSwap has just added some new features to their social language learning website:

Now people can hear and see each other as well as type messages to one another (using Skype). As you can imagine we're excited about this as we think it will help people progress immensely.

They've also added a video channel with lots of videos regarding language and language learning, some educational and some comical.

Check out Free Language's article on VoxSwap or just head straight to VoxSwap.com.
