Hey development team and Skritter community,

I really like the thought process behind twittering your progress. However, for me and many of my friends, we don't use Twitter. I do use facebook, but still, I don't wanna bug everyone I know from highschool, work, family, and college with info on how many characters I learned. That's not to say I don't want to brag. ;) However, it's all about the audience.

I think there is a more tangible way to track progress and it is more understandable to anyone who has studied Chinese or not. I don't mean to take it back to the stone age, but how about a .pdf file that is just a massive collage of all the characters you have learned. Something you can print out and put on your wall and point to when a friend comes over. "Hey Joe, check the 700 characters I have learned. Point to anyone and I can tell you what it means." I think that would be really cool.

Hey, that's a neat idea. Or it could be like AJATT's big kanji poster: you can have a PDF of 3000 characters, and have the ones you know highlighted.

There's a lot of other expressions progress tracking, reminders, and showing-off can have. From using the Twitter one myself, I realize it's a really strong motivation for me to make progress, otherwise everyone will see me slacking off.

So we're planning on making many more outputs for it, but a lot of them will have to wait for us to build a better framework for amassing all that data (the same one we'll use to export your data to you).

But hopefully, once we build that, we should be able to quickly make a lot of exports and reminders and what-have-you. So keep the ideas for what you'd like to see coming!

Keep up the great work.

Just say that if you add #fb to you twitter message, it's automatically cross-posted on Facebook

And you should use Twitter ! :p
