On language learning -

There's a new social networking style site focused on language learning: one of my goals is to get my (rather poorly taught) high school French back up to reasonable fluency again, because I'd like to go to France with friends sometime in the next few years, and I know I'll have more fun if I get more fluent.

The site's http://www.livemocha.com/ - it's free, and helps connect you to native speakers of the language, but also has a bunch of exercises/lessons/etc. I haven't played with it a lot, but the stuff I've seen has been well designed.

The BBC language websites also have some fairly cool language courses.
