I really like how this software, Visuwords, brings a visual interface to something as common as the thesaurus and dictionary. The application has nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs all color coded, in addition to the relationships between the words (opposes, entails, is a member of, is similar to, causes, etc.). Some might pontificate that this is information overload, but I find it a useful tool, probably because I learn and retain information usually better with sight (as opposed to auditory).
I first stumbled upon a visual thesaurus from the M-W.com site, where I saw a promo for the Visual Thesaurus. Their app is nice too, although it is $20/year and it’s really just a thesaurus, as per the name. It’s coded as a java applet, so perhaps they’ve been working on this app for a while, online and offline.
