 I looked at that XKCD page.

Lots of words I see in BBS messages and Wikipedia and some other sites I visit
have words that I have no idea what they mean.

A long time ago I put the Dictionary Thesaurus at wordweb.info on the XP pc.
While reading something on the XP box, if I didn't understand a word I could
hover the mouse pointer on the word, Right Click and WW would pop up letting me
see the definition.

Even on this cellphone if I see a word that puzzles me, I usually have the XP
on and can open WW and type the word in it to see what it meant.

Wordweb is a fine tool, I recommend it.
Helps me a bunch.
