Anki Stream is a tool for long-term flash card review, mostly necessary when learning foreign languages.
Like Piotr Wozniaks SuperMemo, Damien Elmes Anki, and the Mnemosyne Project, it schedules flash cards for review using spaced repetition, allowing thousands and tens of thousands of words to be remembered over years and decades. Anki Stream focuses in particular on presenting an intuitive visualization of how cards are scheduled and making the scheduling formula transparent and adjustable by the user.
The Problem
Do you need to memorize a ton of stuff and keep it in your mind for a long time? Flash cards work well for memorizing new words in a foreign language or other small chunks of information.
If you review them frequently, the flash cards can also keep the words or info chunks fresh in your mind over long periods of time, even if you dont use them often in daily life.
But when you are studying intensively for a big foreign language exam, like I am right now for the level 1 JLPT, there are so many new words to learn that without a smart, automatic method of organizing your flash cards for review, your card pile will quickly grow out of hand and become useless.
For example, the level 1 JLPT requires that you learn about 10,000 Japanese words, mostly written in the 2000 or so characters of the general use kanji, no less.
So if you have 10,000 flash cards in front of you, how do you review them? When you sit down to review, you need to know which of your thousands of cards to study right now, and which you still remember well enough to not waste time on.
Main features:
- Human or machine readable xml file format.
- Import/export to comma-delimited text files for faster card editing and swapping.
- Instantly switch between languages (right now just Japanese and English) via the Help menu!
Enhancements
- Fixing "review" kanji in Japanese text.

mmsStream 1.2
mmsStream - Automator action to plays mms stream more>>
It is an Automator action that helps you to play mms stream in a better way.
Why we need mmsStream?
Microsoft Windows Media Player for Mac does not work well. When you play a long mms stream, the video usually stucks and maybe the audio still plays. Thanks the compnay, Telestream, released Flip4Mac WMV Player for free download. The program allows Mac users to play mms stream in QuickTime Player, which provides great performance. However, it still not works perfectly. In some cases, Safari doesnt detect mms streams and users have to get into a page source to find the mms addresses first, and then can paste to QuickTime player to play it.
Enhancements:
- Auto Play mms stream in QuickTime Player with Flip4Mac WMV Player.
- Universal Binary Build.
