Language Penpals

I've made a few changes to the Language Penpal Resources page. There were a few defunkt language penpal sites that I've removed and I'm adding several more. Actually, since there are more and more of these resources all of the time, I may be restructuring all of these links onto several pages. I haven't updated this page in a long time and it's overdue. There are some great penpal and language exchange resources on the internet and I hope you are using a couple of them as part of your language learning strategy.

LiveMocha - More Sites for Learning Languages

As part of our study regimen it is essential to add penpals, live chats and even voice chats to our mix of language learning tools. There are dozens of sites that offer these features specifically for language learners. I thought the Language Penpal Resources page had more than enough variety, but every time I turn around, there is another site for language learners. I don't think having anymore of these sites can hurt, but I just can't keep up with them all! The good news is that some of the newer ones have deep pockets. They can afford to spend on some very good features. Here is an in-depth review of LiveMocha - one of the most popular new sites - http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/livemocha-smell-the-coffee-and-learn-the-lingo/
