World Wide Words: Other sites of interest

I’ve always found words to be a fascinating human tool. We use it everyday but we never really think about it because it’s just there. Like air or water.

I’ve been coming across a lot of word related websites and I’m loving it:

Worldwide words has a nice list of word related websites.

I like Buzz Whack, the Language Log and Lake Superior University’s Banished Word’s List. Word Origins is cool too.

FWIW, I got on this word trip after picking up Frank Luntz’s Words That Work: It’s Not What You Say But What People Hear. It’s worth a read at the very least because it shows  how important the words we use really are.
