A writer’s tool (instrument, device, etc)

Boy, do I love this!

The Visual Thesaurus has added a whole new dimension to the age-old tool. It adds connectivity. When you enter in a word, it displays the word…and shows you how it connects to synonyms. When you click on one of the synonyms, it opens up a whole new "word web" with related words.

This is what I see when I enter the word "count."

This is what happens when I click on the word enumerate, from the count page.

You really have to experience it 3-D to understand how powerful a tool this could be for you.

You can take it for a test drive, but if you fall in love with it like I did, you’ll have to shell out some cash.

You won’t care.
