Why Nciku is awesome

Because when Ondine describes a Chinese character to me via IM thus:
The top is a "ru" as in "ru guo" as in "what if" ... the bottom is a "xing" as in "heart" ...
I may not have a clue what the word is, but I can go to Nciku, handwrite the word in the box provided and it will match the word for me.

The internet is amazing.

Also, I should really brush up on my Mandarin.
