It's fast too." No auto-suggest (yet) though.

There are no links or email addresses for feedback (at least none I could find). It's always a bit scary to use a tool that provides zero feedback to its maintainer. But I guess this thing is just a showboat for Rails anyway. definr.com is amazingly quick, but the definition of the first word I tried (propaedeutic) contained a typo.
