quizlet: a plug
I use flickr, doggdotus, and boing boing daily... ney... hourly. In fact, they are bookmarked in a folder named 'Hourly'. And to that list I am excited to add Quizlet.
If you haven't already used Quizlet, I strongly suggest you do. I don't want to pin you down and pry your eyes open ala clockwork orange, but I will if I need to. It's that good.
What is it? It's a flashcard application; plain, simple, powerful and fun! You can see my sets here.
For the last 5 days, I've been making sets of 5 vocab words. My new rule is that I will make one set a day and study in those little "down times" I have. I've learned 25 words in 5 days and already have a bunch more words that I want to add queued up.
Who knows, maybe I'll branch out and finally memorize the definition of f-stop. Or maybe I'll memorize some Java API. Or wouldn't it be crazy to be learning two languages at once?! I'm in love with learning again!
