I have seen Duolingo and I think I have stumbled into it on occasion thru search results. I am not exactly sure how it works, but ought to check it out.
I think my biggest risk is that I have no reason to learn German other than I think it would be fun. That is probably good and bad. The bad is there is a risk that I'll just give up, but the good part is that I can do this at my own pace and can learn whatever I want to learn. I do try to do something every day. I invent little conversations in my head and try and figure out how I would say certain things.
I am sure that no matter what, my "German" is going to be some insulting version of mismatched verb tenses and incorrect plural nouns, etc. Native speakers will stare at me in disgust. So my standard, handy response will be:
Es tut mir leid. Mein Deutsch ist unter aller Sau.
