Looks like the Great Firewall or something like it is preventing you from completely loading www.skritter.com because it is hosted on Google App Engine, which is periodically blocked. Try instead our mirror:

legacy.skritter.cn

This might also be caused by an internet filter, such as SafeEyes. If you have such a filter installed, try adding appspot.com to the list of allowed domains.

Chinese interface?

Maybe it's been mentioned in the past, but I thought it'd be nice to have Skritter, in Chinese, at least the main pages like Study and Progress.

On facebook (not a fan but can't deny its usefulness), I created a "study chinese account", where I follow a bunch of people and pages just in Chinese, and have the interface in Chinese too. I find it great to help me be in a "Chinese state of mind". It can be confusing sometimes, but is great way to push myself.

I agree, I think it's weird that Skritter doesn't offer a Chinese interface. I have my iPhone and Facebook set on Chinese interface, why not Skritter.

It's something we want to do, but getting all of the internationalization and localization set up throughout the site to make it possible is a big task that we haven't gotten to yet.

I don't mind it in English, but I do wonder why the My Words/banned page talks of "vocabs" rather than "vocab"....

Edit: The title of the banned words page is "Custom Definitions" incidentally...

Well Nick I guess after the iphone app project you have the Chinese interface project!

haha, ya, can't wait for you guys to finish that Skritter app that some of us won't use(yet), and improve the web version

Can't wait for the app any more either. Looking SO forward to the day we receive that "it's released" mail. :)
