Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Cyworld (Hangul: 싸이월드) is a South Korean social network service. Cyworld became an independent company, came out of the SK communication in 2014. Members cultivate relationships by forming Ilchon (Hangul: 일촌, Hanja: 一寸) or "friendships" with each other through their minihompy. Avatars and "mini-rooms" (small, decoratable, apartment-like spaces in an isometric projection) are features of the service, which can make for a Sims-like experience.The "Cy" in Cyworld can mean "cyber", but is also a pun on the Korean word for relationship (Hangul: 사이 'between').Cyworld is a rough equivalent to MySpace of the United States, with the main difference being that revenue is generated through the sale of dotori (Hangul: 도토리), or acorns, which can be used to purchase virtual goods, such as background music, pixelated furniture, and virtual appliances.Cyworld also has operations in China and Vietnam.
