Once you try crunchy you never go back to creamy.

(Although, I am indifferent on hard or soft shell tacos.)
Once you start online/mobile flashcards you'll forget about the index cards.

I use all three, but the mobile version the most. It's great when walking between classes, waiting in a line or waiting for a friend to come eat. I've made so many flashcards this month that I now have to set aside time to actually finish major decks (as I have almost every subject imaginable)

A bit of advise though (which I learned as a flashcard:)
1. Don't learn if you don't understand.
2. Learn before you memorize.
3. Build upon the basics.

(that was all from memory--even though I've not seen that card in weeks/months)

Also, think of the rule of three: 3 min after, 9 min after (or just 10 min), 30 min after, 90 min after...and so on with multiples of three; the rate of forgetting is very high initially (try to think of the rate as forgetting as a steep exponential decay graph:)
