Word of the Day, Twitter, Facebook and recent updates
Hello slang fans!
The Online Slang Dictionary now has a Word of the Day feed. You can subscribe to the emails (or subscribe in a newsreader) via the "Word of the day" section on the home page. The first Word of the Day is unfriend, which was chosen as the New Oxford American Dictionary Word of the Year for 2009.
Speaking of social networking, you can now follow the slang dictionary on Twitter and become a fan on Facebook.
I've been remiss in sending out update notices. My apologies. Let's start catching up:

Hello slang fans!
Days on which users edited/added slang:
I have updated the site visuals. It wasn't a big change. The right side-bar is gone. Some of its content has moved to the top of the page. Stop by the blog and let me know what you think.

Improvements to site search; many new updates
Hello slang fans!
Yesterday I made some improvements to the site search, so it should be easier to find definitions. This will be an ongoing process so search results will improve over time. You can leave feedback about the search feature (or anything else) on the blog.
I made the root words feature more efficient. If a slang term contains "the" or "a", the list of words containing those roots have been restored.

The Online Slang Dictionary is now a wiki
Hello slang fans!
For a couple of months, logged-in users have been able to submit new slang words to the dictionary via the website. I'm happy to announce a new feature: logged-in users can now edit existing definitions. Look for the "Edit this definition" links.
Additional tweaks are forthcoming, such as the ability to view the edit history of a term.
If you have any feedback, stop by the blog and leave a comment.
