I've misspelled moxie, which you can find in Webster's here: http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?va=moxie Thanks for noticing that. You're right about the Urban Dictionary, although I think its contributors fall into a more narrow demographic than say the Wikipedia's do, making it less broadly useful. Still, good example of New Web. Sorry about that. I’ve misspelled moxie, which you can find in Webster’s here:

For example, I couldn't find the meaning "foxy" in the dictionary I have but only in Urban Dictionary. (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=moxy) (BTW, I think Urban Dictionary is another 2.0 example) I do remember Rockwell and his song and glad you mention it.
