Reverse Dictionary
Aug 4th
I must admit, I check Dictionary.com quite often. To check the spelling of a word, even to verify the meaning of a word. I’m sure a few emails I’ve written have sent the readers to Dictionary.com themselves, just to figure out what the word meant. I came across an interesting link today from their Blog at Dictionary.com, it was for a Reverse Dictionary. You type in the meaning your looking for, and it gives you a word or option of words that it could be. I always that a thesaurus was good for this.
I’ve tried a few ‘meanings’ myself and it was kind of interesting. It’s quite obvious that it doesn’t have the understanding of say a Google Search. It’s probably only worthy of say 2 stars out of 5, but I think they are on an interesting path, who knows they may end up with a Wiki or something.
