Oh wow, look. How rare; another post from no one of matter about the iPad!
One of my goals for 2010 is to start to be a bit more … mindful of the things I think. Twitter is like a magnet for the opposite of that, but it’s a work in progress.
I’ve had all day to mull over the iPad, and I’ve had a few friends and family ask my opinion about the product (some didn’t ask, but they got my opinion anyway). I figure, why let the great void of the interwebs go on without my armchair opinions; plus, this is a good place to point my family to.
I’ve been studying Mandarin as a hobby for a few years now, but I’ve decided to step it up a bit this year. As part of one of my goals for 2010, I am going to take the [HSK][8] Basic test.
An important part of studying something is review and testing [citation needed]. Ok, well at least that’s what I find when I am trying to learn something new. I was lucky enough to get some free copies of software that are meant to aid with studying: [iFlash][1] and [Cram][2]. I thought I’d post a quick review of using both of the applications – with a focus towards studying Mandarin.
