Talk:Autonomous Technology-Assisted Language Learning/Interaction

Untitled
If anyone wants to record their language exchanges and/or post the exchanges to a blog I'd check out Pamela. Bundles with skype, so you can just set it so that a box pops up asking if you want to record the session. Also automatically warns the other party through a text message that the session is being recorded. Let me know too if anyone else is skypecasting these exchanges. I'd be curious as to how other people are structuring the class etc.

Social Networking
Social Networking websites such as MySpace, Facebook, Xanga, Sconex, Bebo and Tagged (all mentioned in the U.S. News & World Report article on MySpace in the 18 September 2006 issue) appear to be an interesting venue for interacting in English, although I have little personal familiarithy with these sites.

Do similar sites exist in other languages? How do they work for someone who is a L2 speaker? Can we get lists of similar Social Networking sites in other languages? Do they all just use aynchronous text?
