recommendations on what tools to use

#8
I spent ages trying out PPC programs and the one I chose and still use every day is stackz.

It uses leitner (unlike kingkanji or JFC) and it splits the cards up into lessons so that you dont have to keep repeating the lessons you dont need to (like the first 10 or so) when you get really far into the book. It already has multiple versions of flash cards for heisig on their site and has many other text books and topics already made for you.

You can have up to 4 sides on any flash card and of course you can work in any direction with them. Also it has a panel that you can write the kanji on to test yourself even further.

Those are the pros. The cons are: Its not free. When you download their premade flashcards lists they are locked so that you cant copy and paste the flashcards around (you get around this by buying a copy of the program but for some reason when you buy a copy of the PPC program the list editor is still crippled).

The program is available for PPC, Palm and Windows. I have only used the PPC version.

Please freel free to ask any questions.
