@indigo They've had literally tens of thousands of new users in the last week. It's interesting to watch.
@indigo Lots of attention in the tech press as a saner alternative to Twitter, and some big names opening accounts there. I'm only able to connect to it intermittently right now.
@jws There's a book you can get in Esperanto called "Gerda Malaperis." It's a mystery designed so that the language starts out simple and gets more complex as you go along.

@caff Verb conjugation is completely regular, as is most of everything else in Esperanto. Learn the accusative case, memorize the correlatives, and the rest is pretty much just vocabulary.

@matigo La sola kialo por lerni Esperanton estas ĉar ĝi interesas. Post jaroj pasigis studante rusa kaj franca kaj germana, mi trovis la ideon pri tute regula lingvo fascina.
"La Linukso de lingvoj"? ?

@caff The nice thing about Esperanto is that it's flexible. Even if you aren't grammatically perfect, you'll be understood as long as you remember to add an N to the direct object. And Esperantists are pretty understanding about mistakes, since there are essentially no native speakers.

Every time I type chat.10centuries.org into the URL field, I think that there should be a chien.10centuries.org too. I wonder if @jextxadore ever thinks that. ;-)
