Amazeballs tweetup! UK dictionary adds hipster internet slang

Adapting to the times, Collins has a useful dictionary and thesaurus site. It's certainly a lot cleaner and easier to use than Google Ad Words-festooned alternatives. 

And it's all free. Good on you, Collins. But NBR ONLINE isn't quite so sure of the venerable publisher's attempt to get down with the kids by adding trendy online slang, and other fleeting phrases, crowdsourced from its readers.
