Good idea for competition/motivation. I traveled to Germany quite a bit for about 5 years or so and worked with German colleuges. I could understand what people were saying half the time, especially if I knew the context, which was most of the time, technical. Could also order drinks/food, etc, but not much more than that. If you don't use it, you lose it...fast. That's a drawback from living in a country like the USA. You never have to speak any other language.
Yes, I'm loving the competition. Watch out for @MarigabyFrias she can do more in a day than most people can ever do.
It's one of the reasons that I like living abroad, I have to use foreign languages on a daily basis.

@RojoLoco you are moving really quickly!

I'm doing both German and Spanish concurrently. Hopefully that doesn't hurt my ability to retain. I figure that they are totally different, so it's not like I'll get confused between the 2.

Or maybe I would get confused and order a drink at a bar in 3 languages like: Hello, Ich mochte una Cerveza.

Anyone else like learning foreign languages?
As soon as they add Japanese.
They keep adding languages. Some are easier than others for obvious reasons. I'm so excited as I've been waiting all year for this one, it was just released yesterday...
Just looked around their site more and found a wiki with a target map of languages. Japanese is no even in consideration at the moment.
http://duolingo.wikia.com/wiki/CourseSo I will need to find another way to motivate me to learn
