 Visuwords |

If you are a visual learner and love words, you'll enjoy exploring Visuwords. It's an online graphical dictionary which gives you word meanings and associations. It looks like a colourful neural net and it's a bit like a jigsaw - hover over the nodes and double-click them for more associations. Cool! |
