I can finally toss that dusty (NAME OF OLD, BORING DICTIONARY COMPANY) thesaurus into the rubbish bin. I don't know how, but Wordnik just started rocking harder. What exciting news!

Thanks for your comment! There are several ways to contribute new words to Wordnik (we can't speak for other dictionaries). The fastest is to tweet a word -- we pick up tweets for new words very quickly and display them on Wordnik. You do not need to have a Wordnik account to do this, but you have to have a Twitter account. A more permanent (and more helpful) way is to leave a comment on the word's Wordnik page giving us more information about it. To do this you must have a Wordnik account (it's free! it's easy! sign up today!). I hope this helps! Hi George! Thanks for your comment!

Sadly it does not let me compare the word that I have searched for in the first place with any of the others. Taking the example you have shown, how can I compare Jaunty & Brisk?
