Dictionary.com Opens Its API And IP With Nook Color, Hopes To Define Dictionary Functions

Barnes & Noble's new Nook Color e-reader, on which our opinions at CrunchGear are divided, represents the first major application of Dictionary.com's new API tools. They launched them late last month, and I just spoke with Dictionary.com's President, Shravan Goli, about their approach to modernizing the centuries-old market of providing definitions. It's a difficult proposition, and one that is being faced by a number of free or almost-free services out there. People won't pay to have unfamiliar words defined for them, yet here is Dictionary.com, a thriving business. It's one of the situations on the new web where monetizing seems to result directly from authority.
