Congratulations to Lingt. Dictionary.com, however, really needs to clean up and simplify their site - it contains a huge amount of potentially useful tools, which are hidden in the depths of the website. A while ago I stumbled upon a tool of theirs which allowed me to describe a word and it would show me a list of potential matches. Until I (again) accidentally re-found it via another website a while ago, I was unable to find it because their site is just so confusing (and Google was of no help).

Since it's being moved offline (language is unclear as to what is happening) you might be interested in the (for-pay) skritter.com. It (if I understand Lingt correctly) has the same design to exploit the spacing effect (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacing_effect). Has anyone else noticed a lot of startups popping up in the "adaptive flashcard learning" space lately?

It was a great service for learning a new language. Have tried it few times (if it had more languages maybe I would've used in on a daily basis) and I really liked how it makes you learn and remember words.

http://flashcards.dictionary.com seems interesting too, it's evident that some of the good stuff from Lingt is reimplemented there.

congrats justin and team!

Does anyone know or care to share details on the acquisition?

Congrats to Lingt. Nice to see some exits for YC S09!
