Exploding Dictionary takes a novel approach to
looking up a word. You can look up a word, and then

\”The basic idea was to take a set of
publicly available dictionaries, index them into a SQL
database, and then cross-reference them to near

material. The information is provided twice. First it is
displayed \’clean\’, then below it is displayed with each
individual word hyperlinked.\”
