Polyspeaks is a fun way to learn and practice a new language. Try it out and let us know what you think in comments below.
You should also try to review the popularity and activity on the platforms you introduce. This one seems to be almost unknown and pretty much dead with nobody to chat with.
So while a nice concept, it’s utterly useless because there’s nobody around, with no sign of growth around.
Well, it sounds promising, but the login is via facebook only. I have a facebook account, but I really dislike this trend of web services where you log in via facebook having no other options to do so. I will have to put this one aside.
I wholeheartedly agree!
In the photo, it says facebook login, and beside that “other sign in options”. I also checked this out.
