Hey,

Have any of you guys explored http://www.langolab.com/ ? I guess it's not very functional right now as the user base is way too small, but in comparison to many other language exchange services I really like the minimalist, instant, randomized chat potential it has.

Anyone have any thoughts on this? I'm hoping it takes off, but I don't think it will be an easy road for such an independent project.

K.

Oh nice! There was another one of these that started up, but it's only in English and Spanish so far... They keep spamming everyone, but still haven't implemented any other languages. I think they must not be able to understand why their service isn't taking off.

This one kind of went into overkill with the languages, but at least there's a -chance- to find someone to speak with.

It's a lot less structured, as you say, but I actually think that's probably a good thing.

A site like this seems like it would have a lot of potential. I'll sign up, and maybe try it when I'm in a bolder mood. It would be cool to see a site like this take off!

I wish you could just use text, without the webcam. Or even just audio only.

Gotta get over your shyness sometime, eh?

Not shyness... I just don't want to suddenly have to look presentable when I'm trying to relax and use the Internet.

I'm pretty sure his concerns have little to do with shyness, really.

I hope it grows bigger —it looks really promising.

I feel that I'm not photogenic enough for the internet Wink.
