Wow, creating IE Accelerators is superbly easy. If you want to learn how to create one, go here (some MSDN blog) and the MSDN documentation (clearly written). I was fed up of dictionary.com bringing all those popups and the stupid definitions of Google's dictionary. So I decided to scratch my own itch. I randomly stumbled on the site called Wordnik and it provides with all examples plus definitions plus lots more for words and its popup-free (as far as I know). So I decided to write and accelerator.

Here is the source code (Yes, this is it):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<os:openServiceDescription xmlns:os="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/openservicedescription/1.0">
  <os:homepageUrl>http://www.wordnik.com</os:homepageUrl>
  <os:display>

    <os:description>Looking up words on an awesome word site called Wordnik </os:description>

  </os:display>
  <os:activity category="Define">
    <os:activityAction context="selection">
      <os:execute method="get" action="http://www.wordnik.com/words/{selection}" ></os:execute>
    </os:activityAction>
   </os:activity>
</os:openServiceDescription>

That’s it. To get it, go here. Enjoy!
