I've been taking Spanish lessons these last couple weeks. I'm getting to the point where I can usually communicate my thoughts, but my vocabulary is seriously lacking. No sweat, I thought, I'll just hop online and find a little Flash Card site. There's got to be half a dozen websites where you can make flash cards and test yourself with them, right?
Uh... Hang on. They all suck! And they're trying to sell me something. This is lame.
Fortunately for me, I write software for a living. Cut to six hours later, and we now have flash-card.org, a site where you can actually make some flash cards and test yourself with them. It will even pay attention to your answers, and stop showing you cards that you always get right after a while.
I'm going to keep taking more classes, so I bet the site will get some more attention soon, as I become frustrated by things it can't do. And, since I can never leave things alone, it will probably get a few more useless bells and whistles tacked on. Check it out if you're a student or otherwise need to memorize stuff. Let me know what you think!
