The Lightweight Visual Thesaurus requires Firefox 1.5+. Be warned that this application can be CPU intensive, use at your own risk.

Just type in a word you would like to see synonyms for. You will see a map from that word (in center) to its definitions (the green circles) to the synonyms (outer words) that share these definitions. Mouse over the green circles to view definitions, drag the circles around to reorganize the map, and double-click the synonyms to view their maps.
