A site for language learning

A few days ago I finished listening to all the podcasts I subscribe to, so I browsed the iTunes store for a new one about linguistics. I found a very interesting one recorded by a man who I think is quite old actually, but the contents are so interesting, and the posts are usually quite short, so you can listen to a lot of them without realizing you've spent a lot of time.
Anyways, the host has made a really cool site for language learning, which you can access here: http://www.lingq.com It's still in the beta stage, so there are some flaws to be corrected, but I really think this will be a great resource for language learning in the future. It helps you learn new vocabulary from the language you're studying and keeps track of which ones are the most important to learn at the moment. It's quite hard to explain all the benefits of it, so you should visit there yourself.
