For those of us that like words (which, presumably, includes those of us that read and write blogs) a cool site to check out is Word Spy.

The description from the site is:

This Web site is devoted to lexpionage, the sleuthing of new words and phrases. These aren’t “stunt words” or “sniglets,” but new terms that have appeared multiple times in newspapers, magazines, books, Web sites, and other recorded sources.

I really like that he (Paul McFedries) researches and cites uses of these new terms as they enter our language. The site has grown quite large and includes an alphabetical index, subject categories, links to related words, recent additions, favorites words, and more. This one is for all the cyberscribes out there!
