A really neat flashcard application

Strictly-speaking this is 'Spaced-Repetition Software'. It's ideal for making your own virtual flashcards, but its main strength is that the application uses some extremely sophisticated logic to control how often you see each card, depending on how easily you remembered it last time around. Lots of clever extras, very easy to use, and free.
