Google dictionary closed forever!

郁闷啊！我赖以生存的谷歌字典，凭啥说关就关啊！现在感觉像用电脑少了条腿一样啊！:'(
:'( :'(

Google closes its Dictionary site, wants you to “search” for definitions instead

http://cdn.thenextweb.com/google/files/2011/08/Google-Dictionary_13125635155211.png

It seems the plug has been pulled on Google Dictionary. If you visit the website now, there is a simple ‘Google Dictionary is no longer available message’.

From the four years leading up to late 2009,Google’s search engine definitions feature linked to Answers.com. Google Dictionary replaced Answer.com in December 2009, and it’s thought that it was initially built using Collins COBUILD dictionary, and eventually changed to the Oxford Pocket Dictionary of Current English.

We’re not too sure whether anyone will miss the service or not, as the Google search engine can be used as a dictionary in itself. Simply type the word ‘definition’ next to the word you’re looking to define, and the definition is presented in the search results, and you can then click through to various sources, such as Wikipedia, Dictionary.com, Answers.com and Merriam-Webster.

A Google Product Manager explained the closure on a Google Support Forum:

    “Google Dictionary was recently integrated into Google Web Search. Simply search for “define X” where X is the word you want to look up. Clicking on the “more” link (or on the toolbelt “Dictionary” link on the left) will give you practically the same experience that was available on dictionary.google.com.

    We’re working hard to make the dictionary experience even better on google.com so it will be easier for our users to get the dictionary experience without the need to go to a separate property.”

仍旧沉浸在痛苦中，有时候不知觉的就会去打开那个网址去查英文或中文。。。
这么好这么有用的外语工具就这么没了，Google太唯利是图了！我明白为啥Google要关，因为Google Dictionary不适应Google的盈利模式！查字典的字不是用户所关心的一样的东西，没法精准投放广告！:@

差不多个P,差太多啦, 音标呢,时态呢,例句呢,英英释义呢,同义词呢,统统都没有啦!
