IronicSans.com/thsrs – The Short Word Thesaurus

IronicSans.com/thsrsCritics argue that the proliferation of text-messaging and services like Twitter that have strict character restrictions are dumbing-down the English language. Whether language is getting dumber or not, there is definitely an increasing need for shorter words that allow people to say everything on their mind in under 140-characters.

This is where Thsrs steps in, by providing the world with a simple to use thesaurus that always gives you results that are shorter than the original word you enter into their search bar. The next time you are struggling to fit a message into 140 characters, simply go to Thsrs and enter the long words that you are having trouble shortening and Thsrs will give you the solution.
