Many thanks for the mention here Nina. I’m very flattered. Hope you find the time and energy to keep blogging. I have my ebs and flows with it, but in the end it’s one of the things I most enjoy, so …

Thanks again

Thank you very much for this post!

Just for info, everything is free and free access now, and the real player is no longer necessary.

My very best wishes,

Thanks for this site. I’m visiting from Kevin’s A Day in a Sentence, trying to do the blog tour. Phew! It’s long this week, but full of new learning.

Comment on Chinswing by Maria Rosario Di Mónaco

Dear Nina,
I am a member of the CALL SIG coordinated by Rita Zeinstejer in our hometown, Rosario.
For our next meeting, we, “the veterans”, are supposed to explain to the newcomers the difference between Chinswing and Voicethread.
Just as I was pondering on that, I found in my Reader this wonderful article of yours. Thinking that your clear explanation of what Chinswing is and how it works would be a good starting point for our discussion, I posted a link to your article in our Multiply blog.
I see now that I should have asked for your permission first.
Sorry for breaking this netiquette rule.
Mary

Comment on Reading for Pleasure by abundantreading

I agree that Nina gives good advice. It certainly should be fun to read. The more we can read for pleasure, the more we will find we like to read. I have learned that one can not only enjoy reading normally, but one can learn to enjoy at faster speeds. I have a by-line that says: “Reading at the Speed of Imagination” I have seen many who loved to read, but now enjoy it more because they can read more books in a shorter period of time. Thank you for your comments. David H.

How I wish I had more time at my disposal…
There is so much to learn and now we really have no other excuses. It’s all out there and for free.
