Wordnik

Back to tools that may be useful both for teachers and students! Wordnik is an outstanding example of that... It is more than a dictionary because it brings not only the definitions you want to see, but also examples from social networks like Twitter. When you type a word you get as a result photographs from Flickr and the statistics and ocurrences of the word besides its pronunciation. Suitable for understanding the use of new words around the cyberworld. It defines itself as "the most comprehensive dictionary in the known universe".
