Babbel.com no longer free
I received an email today announcing that Babbel.com is no longer free. They recently received a million Euros in government financing and no doubt feel they can strike out in a new direction. I wish them well.All online language sites are colleagues creating new ways to learn.
We, at LingQ rely on the contributions of our members to our growing language libraries in different languages. We hope to make it more and more attractive to be a paying member, but the free use of LingQ's resources will remain. I cannot see that changing.
Hello,
We wanted to let you know: Today Babbel.com (http://www.babbel.com),
the language learning platform, is releasing a new version, Babbel 2.0.
This includes completely revamped content and technology for learners
of English, Spanish, French, German and Italian.
We've also abandoned the "freemium" model in favor of quality, and have now become a paid service.
Some words about why from Managing Director Markus Witte at:
