Does anyone know if the website is still accessible? It doesn’t seem to load at all anymore.
I’m aware it wasn’t being updated even when I used it last, but I used to use the audio for shadowing and wanted to check how much my recognition had changed since the last time I tried it.
They discontinued the EtoEto domain sometime last year, I think because Heroku was upgrading its platform, which would require maintenance on EtoEto, which was abandoned in its current form.
That’s a real shame. I only bought a subscription for textfugu in order to access etoeto. Even though I was half hoping for them to update it someday I still felt the audio they had recorded was helpful and worth what I paid. Now it definitely feels disappointing if it’s inaccessible.
I wonder if they could release the audio and text files - there wasnt a huge amount there.
Does anyone know of any other good shadowing resources with transcripts? Real everyday conversations with normal talking speed would be ideal. An explanation of uncommon grammar and phrases would be a bonus.
I sometimes use satori reader but the nature of that app is a lot more scripted and they often feel a bit dry.
