>>  1) - 100 most common words in written German. Seems like it would be a

>> http://german.about.com/library/blwfreq_t50.htm
>>
>>  2) - Very good English/German dictionaries / grammar help
>> http://dict.leo.org/?lp=ende&search=hello
>> http://www.canoo.net/
>>
>>  3) - Word quiz game
>> http://quizlet.com/subject/german/
>>
>>
>>  Lucy had a very good recommendation for beginners; try reading
>> German childrens books or watching childrens shows in German (If I find any
>> good links Ill send them out).
>>
>>  Once the group gets rolling we talked about getting out of noisebridge
>> once a month or so. Often it is possible to find German movies playing
>> around town, or we could all go out to a german pub like Schroeders and
>> practice there.
>>
>>  Again, this group is for students of all levels and we should have
>> something for everyone. Personally I am beginning at a very low level and so
>> most of the links I contribute will be focused at the simple end of the
>> spectrum, however if you are more advanced feel free to post more
>> interesting links. That Pirate movie that got passed around a few days ago
>> was perfect.
>>
>>  My next email will be full Deutsch, promise :)
