If anyone is interested in spaced repetition software (SRS) like SuperMemo, there are two open source projects that are very similar:
-Mnemosyne (http://www.mnemosyne-proj.org/ http://www.mnemosyne-proj.org/)
-Anki (http://www.ichi2.net/anki/ http://www.ichi2.net/anki/)
I've been using Mnemosyne for a week now, ever since the article in Wired about SRS (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=170542 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=170542). I've found Mnemosyne to be easy to use and very effective at helping to memorize things. I use it primarily for language learning (Spanish), but I've also used it for learning the syntax of programming commands, dates of important historical events, and identifying the countries in Europe and Africa on a map.
- jrockway 18y agoAnki is awesome. I heard about it a week or so ago here, and have gotten though the JLPT 2 words (1300 of 'em) with 90% retention in about a week. I really wish I used flashcards when I was living in Japan, instead of my lazy-ass "i'll learn it from hearing other people" technique. (That worked, but not nearly as well as Anki.) Now I just need to find a JLPT 1 word list :)
