Learn Mandarin: Bopomofo Quizlet & flashcards
Great online Bopomofo resource. It has been setup on a Quiz based web application called Quizlet. Its stated mission:
“…to make learning vocabulary not a chore.”
The Bopomofo Quizlet has a few games which match English letters to the Bopomofo/Zhuyin symbols. It also has free Bopomofo flashcards.
There’s no audio but if you’d like to listen to Bopomofo/Zhuyin audio files visit this blog.
Learn Zhuyin fuhao/BoPoMoFo software
Learning Chinese in Taiwan will most likely involve learning Zhuyin fuhao (BoPoMoFo, ㄅㄆㄇㄈ, Zhuyin) which is is the standard phonetic system used in Taiwan to teach Mandarin (see earlier post).

Fast Online Chinese Character to Pinyin Converter
Just found this easy to use Chinese character to pinyin converter/translator at PurpleCulture.net.
It’s web based which I like and fast. It supports both Simplified and Traditional characters, which is great for those learning Chinese in Taiwan.
If you happen to need to convert/translate between one of the many different Romanization systems and Zhuyin (BoPoMoFo) the Chinese Romanization Converter over at MandarinTools.com works well.
Chinese flashcards
For those of you using Practical Audio Visual Chinese, which is the most commonly used Mandarin text book in Taiwan, you may be interested in the flash cards available at truant.net/flashcards.
They have traditional characters, Zhuyin (BoPoMoFo), Hanyu pinyin and English. There are DIY Print-Cut-Use Flashcards available for download. I downloaded the Practical Audio Visual Chinese [...]
Zhuyin/BoPoMoFo/ㄅㄆㄇㄈ & Yahoo Taiwan Online Dictionary
If you are studying in Taiwan and need a fast way (without software) to convert traditional Chinese characters into Zhuyin, I highly recommend http://tw.dictionary.yahoo.com/ online dictionary.
You can paste in some characters and instantly get Zhuyin and English translation. It also provides a rudimentary Romanization without tone marks. I make flashcards and this has been by far the easiest way to get Zhuyin translations.
