Since there is no board just for resources, I'm starting a thread on here for resources I find that I can't resist pointing out to others. If you also have some, feel free to post the link and a brief description of what can be found there.
Please be sure to use "RDJ:" and the correct name of the site as your subject line, to make later re-finding of a good source easier; also, posts that don't contain sources and don't start with "RDJ" can then be skipped, if so desired, by impatient readers. If you forget, it's OK; I'll go in and edit the subject line for ya!
I'm also copying this to several other forums where it may be useful; any mod who doesn't want it there, feel free to either vaporize it or ask me to. Enjoy!
Today's site:
OneLook Dictionary Search

They describe themselves: Think of this web site as a search engine for words and phrases: If you have a word for which you'd like a definition or translation, we'll quickly shuttle you to the web-based dictionaries that define or translate that word. If you don't know how to spell the word, we'll help you do that too. No word is too obscure: More than 5 million words in more than 900 online dictionaries are indexed by the OneLook® search engine.
