Finding Momentum

Have you ever com­piled long lists of words you thought were awe­some (don’t lie, I’ve met two or three of you)? Do you love words such as “phthi­sis” and “tan­ta­mount” sim­ply because they 1) sound awe­some and 2) look awe­some? Do you drool at the pos­si­bil­i­ties of using them in some obscure poem/technical document/research the­sis to the cheers and unadul­ter­ated praise and raw jeal­ousy of your peers and professors?

Then Wordie is your Web site. Think of it as a social net­work for word geeks. Awesome.
