Hi José,

It seems Parley is a Linux-only tool :(  Some days ago I wrote about
tools like Anki (http://ichi2.net/anki/) and Mnemosyne (http://
www.mnemosyne-proj.org/).  Have you used it? If so, could you please
make a comparison for us?

By the way, for the benefit of others, something important: don't
focus around single words, instead focus on phrases.  Learning single
words doesn't help much if we don't know how to use words, I mean we
need a context.  We can get examples of phrases from 'modern'
dictionaries or from linguistic corpus like the ones available from
this page:

http://davies-linguistics.byu.edu/personal/

or simply, searching in sources such as http://blogsearch.google.com/
or http://news.google.com/, etc.

Regards,

Pablo
