Hi all,

I have been looking for weeks for an app that I believe I saw on macworld.com last fall.

It is basically a very, very cool synonym word application. One types in a word in a bubble and any and all associated words will pop up in bubbles connected to it - tree structure. If you then click on one of the new words that appeared, the sequence is repeated with further pop-ups. It is for my girlfriend who is a writer and I have just about given up on getting it for her.

Could someone PLEASE help me locate it?

Much appreciated!

Lars

Is it Spotlight? It's built in to Tiger, 10.4.X

Not quite. It is a 3rd party application that helps writers (or anyone writing, say a paper) with associations and synonyms.

Anyone else?

Thanks,
Lars

Could it be Visual Thesaurus (http://www.thinkmap.com/visualthesaurus.jsp)?
