I created a wikipedia-style language learning site[1] starting with Japanese and English.
It was inspired by a trip to Japan last year[2] after having been away for a while and seeing how badly my reading comprehension had deteriorated.

- sideproject 13y agoI remember seeing this awhile ago - http://www.coffeestrap.com/ http://www.coffeestrap.com/ - similar, but maybe a different approach to the whole language learning industry. Thought you might find it useful!
- imperialWicket 13y agoThis is a nice solution for motivated individuals, and serves as a good practice tool for translators. I'm not sure which OS's come with Japanese characters installed these days, but I ended up here pretty quickly: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Installing_Japanese_character_sets https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Installing_Japanese_chara... , a link or similar instructions might save a couple searches (unless it's just me who didn't have them installed already).
- cjbarber 13y agoVery well done - though I'd suggest refining the value statement/homepage tagline (maybe look at Duolingo.com for inspiration), and also changing the font color, the orange feels a bit strong. Great site though, I can see the value it provides.
