Fascinating!

a.k.a. Technology done right

Today I was reading a piece in the New York Times online edition about fashion for lawyers. I was only a couple of lines in when the writer used a word that I didn't know the meaning of. I decided not to just pass over it but was going to copy and paste the word into dictionary.com, my dictionary of choice these days. When I put my cursor over the word a little icon popped up with an "?" in it. When I clicked on it, a small window opened displaying the dictionary entry for that word! I am impressed.

I love it when technology is done right. It really can make learning and doing things easier.
