| - The Big Word Project is a website created by Paddy Donnelly and Lee Munroe, two Masters students from the University of Ulster, Belfast, Northern Ireland. Launched on February 25, 2008, the project is aimed at redefining the English dictionary with websites. Users can buy a word from a list of over 170,000 at $1 a letter and that word is then permanently linked to a URL of their choice. In its first week, the project saw thousands of visitors and added more than 2,000 words, thanks largely to a glowing review by the popular blog Daring Fireball. But growth cooled; seven weeks after launch, the site stood at 2,345 words. However, an April 21 article in WIRED magazine renewed interest, and on May 22, the word count passed 5,000. As of 29 January 2010, the count was 7,025. (en)
