Dictionary.hm

Okay, so what’s the weird URL? And furthermore, why am I highlighting a dictionary site? Because as you type your word, the tech in the background looks up the definition and gives it to you right there.

That’s right, no clicking to get a page of results. They just show up.

For those of you who know a little more about technology, you’ll probably realize that Dictionary.hm is using AJAX…and trust me, those of you who haven’t heard of AJAX will most definitely hear about it in the next few years.

Visit Dictionary.hm and check it out for yourself.

Also, sometimes even if you've commented before, it may still get placed in a moderation queue and/or sent to the spam folder. If it's just in moderation queue, it'll be published, but it may be deleted if it lands in the spam folder. My apologies if this happens but there are some keywords that push it into the spam folder.

One last note, we will not tolerate comments that disparage people based on age, sex, handicap, race, color, sexual orientation, national origin or ancestry. We reserve the right to delete these comments and ban the people who make them from ever commenting here again.
