Surely there is a crowdsourced thesaurus and dictionary (thought it's reprehensible that the major ones - dictionary.reference.com - don't allow it) - and I'll assume that somebody can apply the best practices in filtering/judging entries. But we need a way to divide/distinguish and then visualize/represent the changes in our language over time and by geographic boundaries. Even more: by culture, profession, or interest type.
For instance: reframe, innovation, design
mean vastly different things (which is at least kinda addressed in good dictionaries), and these distinctions aren't addressed at all in thesaurusi.
