Google Dictionary, Translate And Definition Software Dictionary.net
It was yesterday that we reviewed the Firefox add-on Wikilook which proved to be a great way of looking up word definitions without leaving the active website. Dictionary.net is more or less the software counterpart of Wikilook. The software program uses the Google Dictionary service to look up word definitions. But that is just one of the features that the dictionary software offers to its users as it also provides access to translations, suggested terms and definitions taken from sources like Wikipedia.
Here is how it works. The program is portable but requires the Microsoft.net Framework 2.0 to be installed on the computer system. Windows Vista and Windows 7 come with this Framework by default and most XP users should have it installed as well.
