I’m all for supporting websites

I’m all for supporting websites that provide a useful service and are small companies. Like other people I know, I pay $5 a year for weather underground.

Another site that I use a ton is dictionary.com. I use it many times a day, so when they came out with their premium service for like $12/year I went ahead and signed up even if I think it should be closer to $5. But whatever, they get rid of ads and pop ups.

Well, one of the things you can do with the premium membership is to hear the pronunciation of words. This is actually useful for me since I’m not a native speaker so I do not always know how to correctly pronounce a certain word.

Well, I found out that it also says things like “fuck” and “bullshit” so I spent a long time giggling like a little kid getting it to talk naughty to me.
