     For: students of linguistics and language technology

Open Mind Word Expert is a teaching tool and free online word game.  The
user identifies what meaning of a word applies in example sentences.  It is
a way of getting students engaged in issues of word meaning (which, as a
by-product, provides the organisers with a resource for evaluating computers
doing the same job.)

Try it out today, and be the one to make the highest contribution
in any given day to receive a $10 gift certificate redeemable at Amazon,
Borders, or Target.

This give-away will close on February 22, 2004, so hurry up!
