Spaced repetition systems

Spaced repetition is a program that challenges your retrieval of information based on the forgetting curve.

In short, flashcards with a special timer.

History: -Hermann Ebbinghaus first described the forgetting curve in 1885. -Someone had developed manual flashcards, but Piotr Wozniak (Supermemo blog) created the first computerized spaced repetition system. Inspiring apps like Anki.
