Introducing Gefine – Google Powered Dictionary!

One of coolest featuers in Google is the ability to find the definition of a word using the “define:” prefix. The advantage of the Google dictionary is that it also lists the definitions that are not official and “approved by oxford” – the kind of words that a publisher of a dead-wood dictionary will not add it its book.

Just because it isn’t on the dictionary doesn’t mean the word doesn’t exist right? That’s why I created this tool. You can get the definition of any word on the desktop. Perfect for finding up and coming fads and lingo.
