Palabea.net is basically a language exchange network. Registration is required and its main features include text/chat and voice/video call with native speakers. It’s for any languages and it’s a facebook type website where you edit your profile, invite friends and make comments. With “my palabea” you basically have your profile with options like docs, virtual classrooms (pretty confusing concept) etc. Once you “make friends” you can start the online language exchange, and also connect with teachers, get access to podcasts, videolectures and other features. There aren’t any tutorials, exercises or games but only interactions with native speakers. There are no costs and even though it’s impossible to start learning a language on this website I found the concept very fun and appealing for people who want to maintain their language skills while socializing with native speakers from all around the world.
