Cool way to use Tiger’s dictionary

One of Tiger’s 200 new features is the build in Oxford dictionary/thesaurus app.

I discovered this great feature of the dictionary app just yesterday. In just about any application, hover your mouse over any word and press ⌘+Option+D and a little window will popup with the definition of the word:

dictionary

you can also select the thesaurus from the popup menu at the bottom of the little window.

Note: this will only work in Tiger!
