  • Berserkers were Viking warriors that wore bear-skin shirts to look more intimidating—the berserkers were also trained to embody the spirit of an enraged bear, and summon up all their inner heat and rage to be more effective in combat. This process was facilitated by the ingestion of hallucinogenic mushrooms.

    This is part of why the vikings were so terrifying. You'd be minding your own business in some village in Northern Europe or along the English coast, and suddenly a long-boat full of angry dudes, dressed in skins, stoned out of their minds and convinced they were predatory animals, would show up and start hacking everything to pieces.

  • S.I.N.G.L.E. Stress Is Now Gone Life's Easier

    January 20, 2013

  • overall the site is working nicely, but there's one thing that's very annoying and that's the tedious 3 clicks and 2 scrolls it takes to list a word from the word page itself. (1 to drop to the list area, 2 to expand that list, and then the scroll to find that list which is rather long and ridiculous easier to ctrl-f and search UGH, then a final 3rd click to check the box) that is truly crazy. surely u agree. i've outlined a better solution before and i'm sure that's one of many but really it's easier to open a list tab and then copy or type the words out. that's not too intuitive or fancy at all.

    i've got about 20 tabs of words i like and i'm cringing at the thought of how to go about this.

    My use of Wordnik is hardly as creative as yours, though. I love the multi-dimensional geometric tessellations :D.

  • Hi marky, I can't say exactly when, but we'll be releasing a public API to get the words in lists in the coming weeks. You'll see it announced on 'feedback', and also @wordnikapi.

  • Hi Marky, hope you enjoy the wordnik api. We'll be opening up access to lists shortly--I'd love to hear what you'd like to do with them. Send me a note on my profile, or via old-school email.
