I haven't heard of this. What is it? A dictionary of city names?

It is a dictionary of (street/youth) slang. I use it a lot as I am unfamiliar with most of the words youths and those who want to sound young are using these days. But I fail to see how a dictionary for a language in progress that is updated for that very reason can be of much help when downloaded and put on a Kindle. One would think it is better to have access to the ever evolving online version.

I use Urban Dictionary on occasion, like you, I think it would be better to just go to their website.

Never really gave it thought. With how quickly it evolves, a book would likely be outdated within a couple weeks of its release.
