What's another word for . . .



In my never-ending quest to be oh-so-creative, I'm always looking for new ways to say things. I usually turn to my trusty thesaurus to do a little exploring, but recently stumbled on the Visual Thesaurus online, and a whole new world opened up!

The Visual Thesaurus allows you to enter a word, and then displays an array of words grouped according to etymology or word type. To the right, it displays the definition of the word, and then the visual shows various other words you can click on that take you another graphic with that word at the center.

It's good for hours of fun, and invites more exploration than a regular thesaurus provides. Now, what's another word for 'obsession'?!
