I've just added two more podcasts from the LingQ Podcast Network: ChineseLingQ and ItalianLingQ.

I'd also like to point out LingQCentral, "where you'll find everything related to LingQ". It's the place to stay tuned to all things LingQ. They put out quite a lot of useful content and work very hard to create effective online resources for learning 10 foreign languages, so check them out!

Hopefully one day I will be able to interview Steve himself, though I don't know if he wants to talk to me again after I didn't follow through last time for multiple reasons. He sent me a copy of his book, which I read most of and enjoyed, but was overloaded with life at the time and didn't properly thank him. Steve: if you're out there, thanks and when you want to try again, just drop me a line. :)

Just got this in from the folks over at Palabea!

We have launched an entirely new section in palabea called ‘Offline LanguageExchange’. This, we hope, will complement the online language learning by promoting a more intimate, offline, learning experience. Using the Offline Language Exchange, you can make and meet friends, share with them your stories and experiences, interests and goals, while you share new languages. Read more...

Cool to see the project continuing to move with momentum. :) This looks to be a cool way to make ethereal online contacts turn into real lasting friendships! It is also something with the potential to motivate folks to truly engage in learning as it brings the language exchange into our daily lives.

I recently added a podcast for learning Hindi and two articles on more resources from the BBC Languages website: German and Mandarin Chinese.

The Eighth Edition of the Free Language Letter was published a few days ago. Lots of good info there, so check it out if you haven't yet.

Also, I added two new podcasts to the new Learn Hebrew section of the site. They are both great resources for Hebrew language learners!

I recently wrote on Freestyle Language about how CaféBabel.com's Tower of Babel has articles about linguistic variations amongst 7 languages published in 7 languages!

I am planning to take this further by adding to Free Language the seven news feeds in catalá, Deutsch, English, español, français, italiano and polski. This will provide a new range of news articles for use learning and teaching languages.

As they say here in Grenada, West Indies: soon come!
