iknow.co is a language learning community for learning Japanese (or for Japanese learning English), but has plans to expand to many more languages. Most of the features are fleshed for learning Japanese (courses, wordlists etc) but they claim their learning tools will be helpful in learning 188 languages.
Included in these features are courses, personalized wordlists which can be shared with other users, a vocabulary tool, and a game called Brainspeed to test your vocabulary retention which can actually be played on your Wii!
This is another of a wave of language learning communities that are sweeping the interent and I just read of one more that will be coming out of beta soon.
I don't know how many more of these language communities can co-exist on the internet. There are already so many of them, the market might be getting saturated. We've already seen that Friendsabroad is being absorbed into Babbel, and others are for sale. Which one will be next?
My burblings regarding Language-Learning-Advisor.com and on my language learning experiences in general.
