Default Great Online Dictionary Tool

Hi All,
While searching for a useful online English Dictionary, I found this website http://www.guidancelist.com/education/dictionaries.aspx . It has a drop down list of about 10 dictionaries and you can use it to look up words' definitions using any of those dictionaries. The nice thing is you do not have to browse back & forth between the dictionaries. It's all there for you.
I like this website a lot because my favorite dictionary is dictionary.cambridge.org (it has phonetics & nice examples) but cambridge dictionary does not have lots of words. I therefore used to have to go do a different online dictionary search for my words. Now I have one single place to do it all...Like it said: "Choose your favorite dictionary, enter a word in English and look up its meaning ".
Last but not least, it has a flash form where you can enter a sentense in English and just click SPEAK, it will say it for you. Isn't it a nice place to learn English ???? Please let me know if you like it because I am very excited about finding out this tool
