Today's find

...is Erin McKean. She likes dictionaries. A lot. And I guess, since I recognized the photo of James Murray before she ID'd him and was unsurprised when she started using the definitions of SET in the OED to prove a particular point...

Yes. Well.

First, here's a video of Erin McKean at TED. (You really want to set up a YouTube account just to subscribe to the videos uploaded by "TEDtalksDirector." Trust me.)

Next, Erin McKean's blog, Dictionary Evangelist.

And, for the lighter side, her other blog, A Dress a Day.
