Hi!

 I've just registered here and I love the idea. Unfortunatly, there are not so much ways to learn a new language as I expected before the registration.

 However, I will keep an eye on this website and I wish it will become one of my favourites.

 Here are some suggestions:

- organize talking sessions using Skype and set the language to use in each one of them;

- encourage members to use more multimedia stuff in this website like youtube.

 Hoping a good future for you,

Tomás

thanks for the feedback. We're a very new site so growing and learning every day as we build up enough people to make the site relevant to as many people as possible. So Skype is definitely being considered for the near term future and from next week we will be more in regular contact with our users telling them how they can put more multimedia content on their profiles. In fact, the whole site will become more multimedia and will have more learning resources added over the next month or two. So watch this space, it's going to be interesting.

I've always wanted to create something like that but it's really nice that you have this going!

Hello, I'm a new member here and I would like to tell my opinion about this website. It's a great idea and a big thanks to Sean. I agree with Tomas. I would also appreciate talking via Skype. I have few suggestions. It could be great to have a new search condition in the part "Find Users" - language proficiency level. I would also like to see previous replies in the forum while writing a answer to a topic. And what about adding emoticons (smilies) to the forum? Thank you again for this website and I wish you all the best! (I hope you can understand my English :))

hi Matja and everyone, thanks for all the positive feedback. I think Skype will be available on the site within a couple of week, certainly before the end of March, so that's exciting news. In Find User people are already graduated in the results from native down to beginner, but you're right it would be a useful addition. One of the problems can be how people grade themselves so we try to offer native and fluent people first for you to learn from, people's definitions of 'moderate' and 'beginner' can be very different. thanks for all the useful feedback and good wishes Sean
