Google Dump Dictionary, Get Answers

Filed in: Google — February 6th, 2005

Answer.com
Previously, when we search for a word, there is a [definition] link to the word defination at Dictionary.com. Now, the defination link is linking to Answer.com, no more Dictionary.com.

Answer.com gives more relative results than the Dictionary.com. For example, when you search for “Malaysia” at Answers.com, it returns information like geography, local time(current time!), currency, map, etc. In the other hand, search for “Malaysia” on Dictionary.com only return plain text result. Plus, Answer.com design is more nice and user friendly.
