I used to recommend the owl to everyone back when the discussions were free to access to anyone. Now that they hid it behind the paywall, there's no explanation at all why a certain word would be the right (or wrong) answer, how you would use the word in other situations or any other interesting fact. Without the discussions (plus the way they re-structured the Spanish course, setting me back and making it even longer), DL is just a dragged out beginner's vocabulary. I guess it's still okay for the very basics, but I don't really feel I have learnt much in two months.
