Sharedtalk

There are many Language Community sites that have excellent features for motivated language learners. SharedTalk.com is one I have only briefly mentioned before. It is backed by none other than Rosetta Stone. Several other sites in this category also have backers with deep pockets (Mango Languages, Linq, Friendsabroad come to mind). This is to our advantage as language learners.

More sites with great features means competition - they are competing for us. We benefit from this competition! But it also means that eventually, we will probably have to pay for many of these great features. That means we need to take advantage of what these sites have to offer now. Find 1 or 2 that you like and use them as much as possible. I'm sure that in time you will find them indispensible and you will wonder why you never used them before!
