March 2008: New Release - Game Improvements

We've just deployed a new version of the web site. The main changes are in the Games:

- now games play sounds - you can control if you want them to be played or not
- now games show images
- a new mix game - mixing guessing, matching and typing games
- a system of hints
- now you can see the last played lessons and start them again after a while
- now you can login during the game without having to go to the login page

Don't forget that it's better to be a registered user of Internet Polyglot because in this case the program will be able to save results of your games in the database and show you the words that you know worse more often.

Enjoy your staying with Internet Polyglot! Happy language learning!

New Version of the Site. New Awsome Features.

My dearest Internet Polyglotter!

At last, with a great honor and deep moral satisfaction we announce that a new version of the site has been developed and deployed on http://www.InternetPolyglot.com !

The new version has a number of new features:

1) Typing Game - a new game where you are presented with a word in your language and you have to type its translation in the language that you learn. We hope this game will be a good addition in the language toolset that we provide for our users.
2) We bought and uploaded more pictures so that the majority (95%) of all lessons have images associated with the words. Enjoy a more colorful experience in learning new words!
3) New improved chat. Now the chat page has multiple channels so that you can chat with other people in your native language or about a language that you learn.
4) "Jump to a lesson" link. Now when you go to a lesson detail page you can see a new link "Jump to a lesson". When you click on it you see a popup list of all other lessons that are of the same word language and translation language.
5) Romanian audio pronunciation on Romanian lessons.
6) Other minor improvements that should improve your staying with http://www.InternetPolyglot.com .

Now a little bit about our plans. We are working hard now on a new "game-like" page which we call a slide show. We think that it should improve the initial learning process - instead of just jumping to games, go through all words in a lesson as a slide show: each word will be presented as a picture with the word and translation and the word and translation will be pronounced. We hope to develop the slide show in a month or so. As soon as it's ready we'll gladly notify you of that.

Now enjoy learning languages with http://www.InternetPolyglot.com and have a great time!

Internet Polyglot team.
