Free Spanish Lessons

No habla Espanol? No problemo!

Learn basic Spanish with Study Spanish, a website that features free basic Spanish tutorials. Although the website actually sells CDs of conversational Spanish lessons, the free resources available on the website are very useful and extensive. It's a great way to start learning about one of the most spoken languages in the world.

Study Spanish presents lessons that are easy to understand. The grammar explanation is in-depth starting with the gender of nouns - the use of el and la. It also has a long list of vocabulary words which are categorized, cultural notes about the language, idiomatic expressions used in everyday conversation, and sample quizzes. It also has "Listen and Repeat" drills to help you pronounce the words like a native speaker.

The site is useful to anyone who either needs to study the basic of the language, or to just brush up on the Spanish lessons learned in high school.

Free Superhero Maker

Move over Superman! Now, everyone can be a superhero with this cool application from Kodak - Make Me Super, a website that makes anybody feel like a member of the Justice League. Make Me Super transforms you into a superhero instantly with a video and picture to boot. All for free!

The website is really fun to try. I got a kick out of making a video of my "super husband." First, choose your gender. Second, enter your superhero name or what you want to be called, (Super Mom, Super Girl, etc.). Third, upload a picture that you want to be placed on the superhero face template. You can choose a picture either from your Kodak Gallery account or from your desktop. Once the picture has been uploaded, adjust the size of the picture by scaling or rotating it to fit the face template. Then click on the video button and enjoy your superhero 10 seconds of fame. You can also share the superhero video with your "super friends" through e-mail. Also as a bonus, you can download your superhero picture onto your computer!

So go ahead and see if you look good in a spandex and a cape. :)
