"Knoword is a game of quick thinking, smart decisions and great words. When you begin, you will be given one randomly generated dictionary definition along with the first letter of its corresponding word. You must fill in the rest of the word to experience a gain in points and an added time bonus. You will start off with one minute before the game ends, and every word is an opportunity to extend your time. If you're ever stuck on a word, just hit the skip button and a new puzzle will present itself."

Very cool

Create image/text to describe a word. Great for visual dictionaries, class posters, PYP attributes/attitudes/concepts etc

Wow, grab some text (intro to a unit or new area of study) paste it in and it creates a wordle, but also lets you see how text is linked, see a thesaurus and more. Very cool.
