I know it goes against the whole SRS idea, but I'm moving to Philly and probably won't have access to the internet from Aug. 31st to Sept. 8th! Thank God I'm lazy and haven't gone through a lot of Kanji, but I'm still not looking forward to a 600 card review. Wish there was a pause button for these SRS things, for when life gets in the way of study.

Oh well, hopefully I'll be able to find an empty computer at my school's computer lab...

So, realistically, unless the computer you find has Japanese support installed, you'll have a tough time.

If I am not wrong, all you have to do to use this site is to install a Japanese font. I think that maybe using the Change font script and set the font to  Arial Unicode should have the same effect. Arial Unicode is a standard font that is included with Windows and does support Japanese characters.

I think the key words were "at my school's computer lab"...which means OP probably won't be able to install jack. Let's hope it's a school that uses Macs (many many do).

You can just stop reviewing at any time, come back later. Unless you specifically hit yes or no to a kanji, it doesn't count.

Export your info to Anki and use that instead. I think it's better than this site to be honest.

How do you go about doing that? I use anki but I'm no wiz. Whenever I load up Heisig's deck, it loads up all 2042 cards to learn.
