people away from their desks and not working bugs me.

taking a day off right now is irritating. i have a schedule to fill and travel to sort out.

bah.

joined that LiveMocha site as suggested by [livejournal.com profile] thugg1ns 
seems nice so far
but no Portuguese Portuguese. GRR.

oh well, i can work on some other languages then.
For now.

IS ANYONE ELSE ON LIVEMOCHA?

here is a snippet of a NY Times article:

For those who want to polish their high-school German before a vacation, or to master snippets of well-intoned Mandarin Chinese to charm a future business host in Shanghai, these sites offer alternatives to more traditional tools like textbooks and CD-ROMs. LiveMocha (livemocha.com), for example, is a free site where members can tackle 160 hours of beginning or intermediate lessons in French, German, Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, Hindi or English. There is no charge for tutoring; instead, members tutor one another, drawing on their expertise in their own native language.

Members chat online by typing messages, by talking or, if they have a Webcam, by video, in exchanges with others who want to tutor or be tutored. English speakers learning Spanish, for example, can write or speak descriptions of a vacation and receive feedback on their grammar and choice of idioms from native Spanish speakers on the network. A Spanish speaker, in turn, may seek advice from the English speaker about English assignments.
