LiveMocha.com: Free Online Language Learning Community

Since Rosetta Stone is no longer offering its service to libraries, we thought we’d share another neat language learning site that we found: Livemocha.com offers lessons plans English, Spanish, French, Hindi, German, and Mandarin Chinese. It’s also a sort of social networking site– users can practice conversations with native speakers of the language they’re learning, or submit writing or audio samples for native speakers to analyze. Livemocha keeps users motivated with competitions and a language buddy system.
