ConfabLab provides a web-based video chat/whiteboard platform for world-wide language learners to connect and immerse themselves in foreign language study. This “virtual classroom” learning tool is recordable and it stores usage metrics to keep students accountable in the learning process and instructors/parents (of students) informed. These metrics include: date/time of each study session, total study hours accumulated in a semester and instructor/partner feedback. This software provides 2 main platforms for language acquisition:

1) Student to student (www.confablab.com) - Students across the world connect in a “tandem learning” environment. This platform allows students to take concepts and skills from the classroom and apply them in real-world conversations with their international peers. True fluency is only obtained by immersion in conversation, and this medium allows unlimited opportunities to connect and immerse.

2) Instructor to student (www.tutor-cl.com) - An instructor (or tutor) purchases the right to use the “virtual classroom” to tutor the student face-to-face in a video chat and to utilize the interactive whiteboard.
Lets learn some Spanish tonight by getting on ConfabLab and connecting with our peers across the globe.

Confablamur ergo sumus 

We think therefore we are. in Latin. Akin to "Cogito Ergo Sum" from Descartes, but expanded to how communities think and change. Confablamur was used as a term for conversation. This is where the English term confab comes from no doubt. Shakespeare did not coin it.
"Confablamur ergo sumus" , remember that Sarah, we have gone way beyond , "I think therefore I am" . Thinking and not conversing with your peers is like listening to one hand clapping. Good luck with that zester.

confabulation

A word denoted to the gaps in our memory that we fill in with a plausable but yet imagined memory.
And no, it's different to a hallucination, as a confabulation can only be retrospective (hallucinations are happening at the time)

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
