The Visual Thesaurus, a Dictionary of the English Language that uses Visualization



http://www.visualthesaurus.com/
Available online and offline for Mac OS X
The Visual Thesaurus takes a unique, and remarkably beautiful, approach to presenting the results of a word lookup. Type in a word, click "go," and you're rewarded with a colorful, interactive map of the meaning of your word.

Although you may have used a thesaurus before, either in book form or as a software application, you will find the Visual Thesaurus to be an entirely new experience. It gives you insight into the structure and intricacy of the English language

I'll be definately picking up a copy of this as it looks like it would be a helpful tool in the classroom.
