Some of you may have noticed that I installed AnswerTips on the blog a couple weeks ago. You can now double-click any (unlinked) word in any post (including this one - try it out) and it will trigger a bubble with instant information about the word/phrase.
The tool is also capable of performing a contextual analysis. If you double-click on the word “Jones” in each of the names below you’ll get 2 different biographies because it takes into account the words before and after the one you double-click.

Here’s what it looks like in action:
