How-To-Learn-Any-Language.com: German
How-To-Learn-Any-Language.com is a site "for people who love languages." The site is run by a Swiss entrepreneur named Francois Micheloud, based on his own experiences with learning languages (see the About page).
The site has a profile on the German language here, providing general information about the language and where you can use it (although I don't know if I agree that "few learn for pleasure" and that "few people speak any German" :) ). The site gives difficulty ratings for languages; German has a rating of three out of five. There is a copy of Mark Twain's "The Awful German Language." It also has an (unfinished) list of reasons to learn German.
The site hosts forums for members to discuss language learning in general (which are in English). There is also a forum in German here.(Posting to the forums requires a free account).
The site also has information about language learning in general.
