The Free Dictionary homepage contains widgets similar to Google, remaining strictly personalized to each user’s basic needs; including factual points of references such as a three point search engine, weather, dictionary, current and events -- even including widgets that are more of a time passing brainy options; including the game of hangman, match words, forum, many more additional gadgets to be added at the users’ will. All widgets can be added, customized by location or color, moved to another position, and removed at any time; noting that the more widgets one has the slower the page will load — thus it is highly recommended to keep the homepage at a minimum of just what is the most appealing.
