@Richard,

谢谢,过奖过奖. Actually, you can you tudou.com and youku.com to get your daily dose of Chinese immersion, there's news, entertainmen, MV (music videos) etc. You can immerse yourself in a wide variety of levels depending on the form of entertianment you watch. Cartoons are more simple, love stories set in modern times use very modern and up to date language, war movies use more classical language, you get the picture.

I always like to have my pocket dictionary and nciku.com at the ready in case I don't know something I can always pause and look it up and start playing again. You'd be amazed what you can learn from movies, which is why I love Film Friday, I just wish Popup Chinese would also feature Chinese entertainment, maybe a different feature that's dedicated to teaching through entertainment?
