Wordcount is a cool website that shows you the frequency of the top 86,800 most used English words. The grand winner... "the", the lowest (categorized) word... "conquistador" which I had to look up on Dictionary.com before remembering what it meant: "A conqueror, especially one of the 16th-century Spanish soldiers who defeated the Indian civilizations of Mexico, Central America, or Peru"

EuroRoss was not ranked (somehow I see how this reflects on the popularity of this blog, although scoble wasn't ranked ether since I guess they only use "real" English words... discriminatory basterds!), but Euro is 9967 th and Ross weighs in at 4452 th.

I know how much fun you're all going to have plugging in dirty words :-)
