The content for the first 1/4 of www.zhongwenred.com has been uploaded and is ready, but we need to put in the vocabulary section for at least 2/3 of the uploaded lesson. WWW.zhongwenblue.com should be finished in a few days.

We have not even uploaded www.zhongwengreen.com yet.

Saw in Barnes and Nobel one cd-based Mandarin pack costing over 70 dollars. Considering the fact that that is almost a year of Chinese Pod, it better have been a good series of lessons. CD-based learning is just so outdated.

People have just not caught up mentally do the new possibilities inherent in web-delivered digital technology.

Hello world!

This weblog is going to document a series of projects I have been planning and working on over the past few months – a series of sites devoted to learning Mandarin online.

The sites are:

www.zhongwenred.com

www.zhongwenblue.com

www.zhongwengreen.com

The sites focus on a single vocabulary word, and its explication through example sentences. The sites will eventually have 120 units each, with each unit having 2 mp3s of native speakers as well as a PDF of the information from the unit.
