A Word a Day

Today I found a site that I’m interested in, and I thought others of us might like it too. It’s A Word a Day, which you can subscribe to to get new vocabulary every day in your email. Or you can just peruse the site (or buy the book, too, I guess). It’s on the same site as the Internet Anagram Server that we had fun with a while back. At least Dan (Dead Land Mind) and I (Madcap Nerd Kit) did.

Addition: Apparently, the Oxford English Dictionary also has a Word of the Day feature, but not a subscription list.
