Lots of Work on FreeLanguage.org

Today has been full of site changes on Free Language!
I set up some initial news feeds for French (français), German (Deutsch), Italian (italiano), Japanese (日本語), Mandarin Chinese (䏿–‡), Portuguese (português), Russian (РуÑÑкий) and Spanish (español). There are plenty more feeds to add, of course, but this gives a base to start with.
I also updated the links on the top to reflect the current content.
I added a link to a great resource for learning languages online (Word2Word.com). This is to lead people in the right direction that arrive at the site looking for free lessons. The lessons are not online yet, but I have some nifty ideas about how to make it happen using materials in the public domain.
I also mind-mapped the current visualization of how the site will be set up. This is an initial mindmap, with more work to do to incorporate all of the things I want to do with the site.
Finally, I implemented Google AdSense in hopes that I will be able to pay for some hosting fees and maybe more!
And more stuff behind the scenes.. :)
I also noticed that already (I only released the site two days ago) I am number 2 on Google for a search for "freelanguage" (all one word - hopefully the words separated will come soon, too!).
