Well, the Rosetta Stone thing has this online program where I can talk to live instructors online and practice my Japanese or ask questions about Japanese. It has other programs to it. I haven't really looked at Last.fm, other than the time I looked it up and all I could find were self-made lists that people put up (I have a hard time trusting people on the internet when it comes to learning stuff). Rosetta Stone is how the U.S Armed Service members learn languages, which means I would be using this if I were to join the Armed Services anyway. lol
Oh well. If this doesn't turn out well, it was always nice for my dad to try. I really hope it turns out well enough. Of course, I'm not expecting to become fluent with this, but any step foward from where I am is a huge step, considering the past year and a half or so that I've been away from my Japanese classes have been nothing but playing a Japanese online game. x_x
I like their voice-recognition software, though. I've never actually used one of these before. It tends to not pick up on my voice some times for words like "boku," "desu," "imasu," etc., but I think that's because I'm just not used to it and am speaking unclearly or too softly. lol
