I didn't do the last one but I'm trying to do this one. There are a lot of resources to help me keep on track and make sure I'm not missing too much when I'm learning alone. I'd rather not miss any but learning alone loses one of the most important pieces of the Daf - the fact that you're learning with others. No matter what country you are in, what city, town, or neighborhood - if there's another Jew learning the Daf, he's learning what you're learning. And what someone else knows in cross reference or commentary can and does supplement what you know. My brother just sent me this resource which looks great. Uses Google apps as part of its back end. http://dafhachaim.com/daf/berachos_8#preview
As an aside, I accosted a few people on the street to ask them if they've seen anyone doing the Daf on a tablet. Maybe it's something that's done when learning alone because they never saw anyone to date. There are resources though so someone must be doing it.
