WordCount

Yet another nifty place on the 'Net where you can spend {waste} bunches of time....

WordCount™ is "an artistic experiment in the way we use language. It presents the 86,800 most frequently used English words, ranked in order of commonness." The data comes from The British National Corpus (BNC), "a 100 million word collection of samples of written and spoken language from a wide range of sources, designed to represent a wide cross-section of current British English, both spoken and written."

Okay, so it's British. It's still interesting....
