Reference tools that make your writing smarter...and easier

Improve your work. Here are two online reference tools that every writer or copywriter should have: The Visual Thesaurus and 1-Click Answers™ from Answers.com.

The Visual Thesaurus is a dictionary and thesaurus with an intuitive interface that maps out word relationships and encourages exploration and learning. Available in both a Desktop Edition and an Online Edition, the Visual Thesaurus is a great way to improve your vocabulary and your understanding of the English language. Best of all, now you can download and install the Visual Thesaurus for Microsoft Word.

1-Click Answers from Answers.com gives you instant, accurate facts. Just Alt-Click on any word in any program on your screen and a window opens filled with definitions, synonyms, translations, etc.

Actually, I’ve written about these before, but with the new MS WORD interface for Visual Thesaurus, thought it was time to mention them again.
