Talk is Golden by KanTalk.com

We updated the site last night and incorporated some of the feedback you sent us.

For users who have created any LiveTalk in the past, you might have noticed you couldn’t cancel it if you happened to have a scheduling conflict. You are now able to cancel your future LiveTalk on My LiveTalk page.

For LiveTalk partipants who would like to make a comment or rate the LiveTalk you were just in, we now list all the most recently completed LiveTalks for your convenience.

We added My Friend Requests section on your home page. It will let you see pending friend requests from other members, in addition to receiving these requests in your regular email.

It’s been three exciting weeks since we launched the site. We appreciate your support and feedback. Please continue to share your enthusiasm, your passion, even your frustration in language learning with us and help us build a better community on KanTalk.

We have scheduled a few LiveTalk through Skypecast in the past a few days, thinking to discuss social network trend among the language learners. But when the scheduled time arrived, and we tried to join the session, the Skype window popped up an error message, saying “This Skypecast Has Finished Already”.

Hmmm, either it’s a bug at Skypecast, or we are living in the past.

A quick search at Skype’s Forum (see link here) tells that we still live in the present; it’s the bug at Skypecast. It seems that this only occurs in the Skypecasts that are scheduled more than a few hours in advance; when you create a “Starting Now” skypecast, everything works like a charm.

We reported it through Skype’s Online Support a couple days ago. So far, the bug is still alive and malicious. For those who tried to join our LiveTalks but failed, we are sorry.

When we wrote our New Year resolution a week ago, the number one item on our list is to get Kantalk out. Well, we started off on the right foot. Today, Kantalk is in the open. One is checked off the list; nine more left to go. We are excited!

If you also wrote a New Year resolution, and put Learn To Speak English (or Spanish, or Korean, or French, …) on the list, then we hope Kantalk can help you start off on the right foot too.

To learn to speak a language, silence is not golden; talk is. At Kantalk, you can join other learners to practice spoken English, or any other language, over the Internet. Through live group conversation, you can meet new friends, build a supportive network, and share the learning experience. It’ll be fun.

Kantalk is still in the early stage of the development. But we wanted to put it out early, let you take a look and try it out. Tell us what features you want to see. We are eager to hear from you on how we can improve.

Please send your comment and suggestion at our Feedback page here.

Cheers,

David and Danielle
