The holidays are almost upon us, but at 88Groups we’re trying to dish out some learning gifts a bit earlier.  Here are some highlights from the last week:

•  Brendan reveals a great character — 嚏 — for making your Chinese friends lose a little bit of face on Character Insanity.
• Bill offers an alternative to Character Insanity — appropriately named “Character Sanity” — by taking a look at characters in the way that Ezra Pound and other poets of that era did in Learning Chinese in the USA.

It looks like the folks at 88Groups really like their characters. If you like character, too, or anything else under the sun, you can come to 88Groups, create a group, and share the love.
