Wordie: Social Words
Wordie goes by the tagline “Like Flickr, but without the photos” but it’s much more than that. Until you’ve tried it out, you’d never believe social word-listing could be so fun. Like shadenfreude?

If you want to try it out, the Wordie homepage, my userpage, or my word list feed!
