Do you know of a flashcard software application that you think should be reviewed here at Fool’s Flashcard Review? Post a comment here.
Has your favorite flashcard application recently been upgraded with significant bug fixes or new features added? Post a comment here and I may give the software another look, even if there is an existing review for an earlier version.
Reviews will be written from the perspective of language learners but all flashcard and memory management software will be considered. Mac OS X applications are the priority but I may consider reviewing Windows, Linux, or Web applications.
Upcoming Reviews: iFlash, ProVoc, Mnemosyne, and Studycard Studio.

Hey, I first wanted to thank you for making this web site; I’m learning french now and it’s been a great resource. I’m really looking forward to your iFlash review, as it seems to be one of the top contenders on OS X.
I was wondering if you’d be willing to take a look at Mnemosyne – an OS X binary was just released a few days ago. I’d been shying away from it because it required you to compile it on a mac, but the binary comes pre-compiled in a dmg with a nice little icon to boot. Oh, and it’s Leopard-compatible. You can find it at:

Dan, wonderful news! I have used Mnemosyne in Windows through Parallels on my Mac and its simplicity is attractive.
Last week I spent about 5.5 hours trying to compile everything necessary to run it on the Mac but failed in the end, miserably.
I’m delighted to hear that there is a Mac binary and I will definitely do a review of it!
I am curently using iFlash myself and, as my upcoming review will show, with a few minor bugs that will hopefully be addressed soon, I think it is the best out there currently for language learners.
