Find Definitions and Associations with Visuword Graphical Dictionary
Visuword is a graphical dictionary that not only gives you definitions, but also shows you how one word is related to another.
The visualization of these associations resembles a neural net with nodes representing words and concepts and the lines connecting them showing how they relate to one another. Different colors mean different things. For instance, a node colored green means it's a verb whereas a light green line means one word causes another.
I'm not too sure how useful Visuword is for most people, but if you're looking for the perfect word, it might be a good alternative to a thesaurus for generating ideas.
