The OneLook Reverse Dictionary
October 26, 2004
Tell the OneLook Reverse Dictionary what you’re looking for, and it will find it for you, more or less. You can ask it “what, where, when” type questions. I asked “Where is Acapulco?” and one of the results I got (among several other irrelevant ones) was “slaughterhouse.” I think it’s an interesting toy to experiment with, but as a reference tool or a suggested site for patrons, I would hesitate.
