Lexisum is a innovative new site that does something oddly useful. It browses Wikipedia as you type. So, let’s say you’re writing an article on fungus. Type in the word, ‘’Fungus’, and the wikipedia entry of fugus immediately pops up. It’s helpful if you’re writing a paper and need a little extra help. If you happened to forget a term, or didn’t fully understand what your professor meant by suzerainty, type it in and Wikipedia will help you out. Only a partial imprint of the article appears. If you want to read the full thing, click on a link below the article to bring you to the actual Wikipedia page. What’s more you have your choice of several typefaces and font styles. Choose from default, A4, A4 Small, A5, A6, B&W, Antique, and mix. You can instantly change from visual to print mode and it’s also available in nine languages. Lexisum is an Ajax application.

In their own words
“Browse wikipedia as you type and impress your colleagues with excellent prints.”
Why it might be a killer
Lexisum provides an interesting service. It’s useful for students in writing papers or studying. It’s easily printable, comes in a handful of languages, and is a breeze to use.
