And now for something completely different


Kinda kewl. Here's a very fast, online, free dictionary. Its limited in its vocabulary, but probably adequate for most of us.

Welcome to Definr. I guess its the Flickr for the literate set. Get it? The spellings? Oh never mind.

Don't know about you, but I use a dictionary for two reasons. One, I can't spell worth shit. Thank you foniks. And two, sometimes I need to understand the nuances of words to make sure I'm saying exactly what I want to say.

Just another reason I like the word "fuck". Not too nuanced.
