I use a thesaurus a lot and a while back ran into the Visual Thesaurus. It’s a cool program for WinXP machines (online edition available by subscription) that has 140,000 words, meanings, and relationships. Visual Thesaurus displays the results of the search word you enter in a very informative graphical way, with detailed information displayed when you hover the mouse over the term. If you want to try it yourself there’s a “look it up” button on the web page that shows you how it works.
