Check out Visordown's powerful new search facility

If you can find a word that appears in the Oxford English Dictionary but hasn't been used on Visordown then you could win a prize

Posted: 8 September 2008
by Ben Cope

VISORDOWN is going from strength to strength and over the past few months we've been developing new features to help make the site more useful than ever.

We've just launched a new search facility - you can see it in the top bar throughout the site - and we're issuing you a challenge.

Using the search facility, see if you can find a word that appears in the Oxford English Dictionary but hasn't ever been used on Visordown. If you find one, send an email with your name and address to: visordown.beta@gmail.com

Every correct entrant will will a copy of TWO and all entrants will be entered into a prize draw to win a set of Duke DVDs, books and a signed Bradley Smith hat.

I knew you were going to ask that.

Tip:
Don't go outside for a day or two.
Actually best make that a week.

Mr Marv

But thats just lazy..

Google has some much better alternatives

I just did a Google search for 'Find words in the OED that haven't been used on Visordown Forums'

The answer it gave me was - 'tact'

Is that what you say about a carpet that's nailed down?
