I've actually tried Duolingo after suggesting it to you. I got hooked playing with it for many hours. The speech synthesis for the course I'm taking (German) is pretty bad, and while using it I find myself spending an awful lot of time writing in English rather than German. Also it is messy in many ways (example: after the "Seasons" lesson I know how to spell Autumn and Summer, but not Winter or Spring). Nevertheless I like it, the amount of material available is outstanding, so I guess I'll keep on using it for a long time.
