Great information! Great blog! But what I honestly think is that the easiest method to learn Spanish is still the learn Spanish CD from Rocket Spanish

BBC is a really good free resource for learning Spanish, probably one of the best that i've ever seen (and i've been looking for a long time!) If you're interested in Spanish software, then take a look at one of my new favorites: Rocket Spanish.
