I have been unable to open the WoTD link from yourdictionar.com homepage.  Could anybody suggest what might have gone wrong?

Besides the content, I wanted to check what "Alpha WoTD" means and if Dr. Language has changed his pen-name.

Flam, here’s a link to the alpha Dictionary site, where our Dr Language, now ensconced in a new alias, Dr Goodword, presents Today’s Good Word . One can register with the site to receive the [s]Gospels[/s] Good Word via email, but unfortunately that site seems also to be suffering from some of the same difficulties so characteristic of the ydc site. Thus, neither site has sent me any Words-related email for some time now, and like you I find myself unable to click onto those presented on the ydc site (the TGW, on the other hand, is available on the alpha Dictionary site)....

I haven’t received WoTD for weeks now, and the (new?) moderator ignores my emails.  >:(

Something very wrong happened to this site.

Sorry, norio.  We’ve all recognized the change, for sure.  I don’t think I’ve gotten the WotD for quite some time, either.

But, on the bright side, I am getting the daily "Good Word" from alphaDictionary.com.

Well, the WoTD came back to me, not clear for long.

The new site does indeed exudes goodness, I have to agree with Mr. Henry Day.

The most important feature, to me at least, is the Agora, a congregation of good-natured carnivors…  ;)

I’ll keep the faith
