Pretty much, it sounds like a good idea, with simply the need to get the cards online some place. If you don't have your own server, the numerous free server spaces (geocities, etc), even with the various strings attached, would work. I'm not sure what format that your flashcard package stores the data in, but if you can get it into XML, that would be great, but even something as simple as HTML would work. Then just make sure you post your site as a new node and possibly in your home node, and hopefully people would continue visiting it.

One thing you may want to do is increase the knowledge base of your flashcards by allowing others to submit good summaries for them. I'd try to set up a special site for this; the script would simply take submissions for flashcards, which would be stored in some fashion, with the ability for yourself to moderate it. It would be a rather simple script to set up. You'd also want to make sure that the current list of cards is available to the web in general, preferrably in some fashion *cough*xml*cough* that would allow the enduser to put the cards into any format they think is useful. Those that contribute can also see what entries have been included already.
