At the end of the year – amongst the retrospective lists that catalogue the best movies, media moments, albums, and whatever – is the who’s who of what words made it into the dictionary.  But little thought of are the words that are taken out.  The makers of the Oxford English Dictionary have created a fantastic website Save The Words which feature words that are in peril (apparently microreader and 10-cent store on on their way out) and encourages people to sign up by pledging to use them in conversation in order to save them.  It’s very well done – simple, clean, beautiful, fun, with great navigation.
