Visuwords™ online graphical dictionary — Look up words to find their meanings and associations with other words and concepts. Produce diagrams reminiscent of a neural net. Learn how words associate.

Enjoy,

Thanks Slava,

Once again you've proved yourself to be resourceful and informative. I was wondering why the Visuwords people didn't market their product as a visual Thesaurus, not knowing, of course, that someone else beat them to it! :wink:

Enjoy your weekend.
