- The Internet Picture Dictionary® (allows browsing by categories)
- One Look® Dictionary (allows searching for words related to a concept)
- VisuWords® (online graphical dictionary)
- And last, but not least, a corpora, which in this case is available online (again for free): Cobuild Concordance and Collocations Sampler:
(adjectives that collocate before "idea")

These "new" and "different" dictionaries are great!!!! Personally, the most useful is the visual one... it is indeed pritty similar to the type of work I do for my own study of vocabulary!!!
Great mindmaping strategy!!!
Love it.
Hi people!
It's true, these dictionaries are wonderful!
There's always a right dictionary for each of us.
It's like choosing a t-shirt. you have to figure out which one fits you best ;)
By the way, I'm posting here the link to the dictionary I told you today of our "Lunfardo."
Hope it's of help! (:

Visuwords is a great dictionary! It gives you a whole "net" of related words.
