The person who ThermionicScott linked to above has a lot of practical lessons, which is great. I noticed that Duolingo has a few things they teach that are more like spoken French, but their emphasis is definitely on written French, spelling mostly. But there are entire lessons where they teach you to use on instead of nous.

One useful thing I learned is the contradictory "yes" -- si. If someone asks, "are you about to cut off your finger," you say "si, I'm carefully slicing this piece of ham.
