A new free language-learning web application, gives you just 10 words each day to learn in one of 15 different languages. It’s called Learn it Lists and the goal is to learn a little every day and by seeing the list on your home page as a google gadget, myspace, facebook and many others, you’ll learn by repetition. To get started, go to your google home page and add the learnitlists widget, register by clicking the register button.
It may still be in beta on facebook and myspace, but it’s available on hi5 , Orkut and igoogle (google’s homepage). You don’t have a choice of the vocabulary list, but you can show or hide the answers whenever you want.
It’s free at the moment (from their website) -
In order for us to run our basic level service without charge, we require all users to answer one question from us every day. You will find this question on the control panel. Individual answers will never be made public, but combined to provide useful but anonymous data. We can then use this data to fund further development.
I only recently signed up for this myself and haven’t see the questions or how much of a pain it is to answer a question a day. What if you miss a few days? Do you have to answer 5 or 10 questions to catch up? We’ll see.
Update: I took mine off of my igoogle home page already. Every time I would go back to my home page, it would default back to Czech. I gave up after I would have to re-sign in or re-register to get it back to Spanish. I may still try it again later.

1I was looking forward to trying the app, then got to the bottom where you keep getting Czech. Too bad…sounded like it could have been a good tool to learn

2Hi Sandy & Learning Spanish blog,
Thanks for writing about us.
I think the problem may be that you’re looking at a very early version of the widget.
Sandy, If you want a quick response when you’re having a problem with something on the Internet, can I suggest that you contact the company concerned, rather than posting on a third party website. I was lucky to find your comment here. We have our next release out very soon & you are welcome to try this.
Learning Spanish blog – would you like a free trial of the new release? – it’s now in private beta – give me a shout if you’d like to take a look.
