E-learning is an abbreviation of "electronic learning". E-learning is distance learning systems that utilize computer technology, computer networks and / or the Internet. With e-learning, we can save time, cost of education, it can even reach a wider geographical area
Initially, e-learning system applying pdf format, flash, websites, and other e-book system. But no doubt also that which is owned by the lack of e-learning methods that seem stiff and still in one direction, unlike in the classroom, it is possible to conduct two-way interaction between teachers and students can occur. Therefore, in its development, it takes an interactive e-learning, where there is interaction between students by fellow students, as well as with teachers.
Similarly, with e-learning for learning English. Currently a lot of e-learning that allows students based on blog to be able to obtain materials as well as English lessons, but also interact frequently asked questions to gain a deeper understanding. With e-learning format based on this blog, a teacher can better interact with students via the comment in any e-learning material with ease. Asked what the student can be answered directly. Or discussion between students have also taken place there in the forum.
This system also does not require that teachers are always on stand by in front of the computer to answer questions but enough students will provide students with better understanding of the questions posed solutions. So that the interaction created by all, in fact may not be a student but other visitors are also able to give their opinion.
It is expected that e-learning system is highly interactive-based blog can provide benefits not only students or teachers for educational development in Indonesia, especially English.

CHATTING: benefits to learn English
Chatting is a means of communicating that uses the internet network (online). In the chat, someone can communicate with others using text (text chat) or voice (voice text). Chatting is a trend that is booming in the world, from young children, adults to older people. This is because with the chat communications can be undertaken simultaneously, without having to wait in line, so it is that makes people more comfortable doing in the appeal with sms chat.
We can communicate directly with people who are invited to chat with us, there is no time limit even though the place was far away among the people who are doing the communication. So do not be surprised if we who are in Indonesia, and in Denpasar particular can establish close relationships with other people who are in Europe, America and other countries without having to come face to face.
For someone who is broad minded, he will tend to build communication with people outside the country. Thus, English became the language of communication is very supportive. And according to some sources from the internet, one of the benefits of chat is that it can enrich the English vocabulary someone.
The reason why chat also useful for developing English language skills when communicating with someone is a stranger, there are three sections of the English language was enriched, ie

Internet as interesting media to learn English
In fact, internet development progressed very rapidly and can be felt by Indonesian society without exception. This adult community located far from urban areas can now easily obtain the services of information offered by the internet. But not a few risks that will be obtained by using internet services, but it depends on us alone would be directed where information such as internet technology we use. Of the many benefits that are served by the internet, I try to invite to all fellow bloggers, newbie, who are familiar with the internet to make this internet as a medium of learning that can support students' learning process, especially learning English.
In the process of learning English, internet usage is very helpful, because most information on the Internet is available in English. Thus, indirectly, for someone who wants to find information or data, he will learn to master the English language. In addition to enabling communication without boundaries of space and time, the Internet also can be utilized for interactive learning. Learning this way is a media-rich learning, information-rich, and rich communication. Using interactive technology, we can learn from the material presented in multimedia format. Learning becomes more interesting because it is enriched with sounds, images, moving images, and the level of interactivity with the media (eg: click, mouseover). However, a more mainstream is the interaction with instructors, fellow students, and other learning resources outside the boundary of space (in other companies, other countries, other continents, and in other industries) to learning and the learning experience becomes more meaningful with more results good.
Surveys in the field of English language learning show that learning in the classroom with a good quality teachers, which is enriched with interactive technology-based learning can significantly reduce learning time. Thus, an interactive technology-based learning with the same quality of teachers to 40 percent to 60 percent faster than learning in the classroom without the aid of any media.
Thus, there is nothing wrong for us to learn to speak English by using the Internet media.
