This weeks question:

For me one of the most useful tool in my writing arsenal is Urban dictionary. What is your most referred to website for your writing?

I'm certain it is Google/Bing.  I constantly search for information using these two search engines.  I put post it notes on the sides of my writing (yes, I'm still writing long hand.  It makes me happy and I confess to loving the smell and feel of good 'old fashioned' paper.)  and later Google/Bing all my questions/ideas.  These websites have replaced my thesaurus, dictionary, encyclopedia, as well as saving me countless trips to the library (although I still do frequent our local library).  I also depend on these sites for images.  Recently I was researching the city of Bratislava, Slovakia.  The images  from Google were extremely helpful in aiding my description of certain parts of the city.  With a few taps on my battered keyboard, I had the city's map before me, knew the locations of various districts, and was able to see homes on the market and even take a few virtual tours.  All I can say is, "Thanks Google!  You make researching one of my favorite parts of writing."  ~ Nadja
