Twitter em português
Posted on 14. May, 2009 by Rachel in Learning, Online Learning
One excellent way to practice your language skills is by constantly exposing yourself to the language and by giving yourself at least one “dose” of the language written and spoken each day. One way to give yourself a dose of written Portuguese each day is by using Twitter, the popular and free microblogging service.
