Well I had some time this weekend so I made my visual thesaurus clone with the help of Standfords WordNet. Odd the things I do for fun..

This is something I’ve wished I’ve had the time to do for a few years. With the javascript plugin done for presenting the data and a simple database to use it actually took more time styling the damn page than making the visual thesaurus.. but I think that’s just a swipe at my styling skills and complete lack thereof Image may be NSFW.

This entire project was part of something I wanted to do, something that should take no longer than 7 days that I can do within my free time. All up it ended up taking 12 days, but if I definitely want to do more stuff like this.. just picking it up and running with it. Sure, the code isn’t super pretty at the end of the project but it’s fun as hell making it. Now that’s it done I can find something else to distract me.
