In general we see "word of the day" as a way to learn words and their meanings. It can be a general thing, or a more specific application of the idea as a teaching/learning/awareness tool. Let's look at a couple of examples. If you go to the Merriam-Webster site to look up a word, you will find on the home page a link to the "Word of the day" feature. This is a randomly selected word, and it is presented with its pronunciation (including an applet for a sound bite so you can hear it) and a definition. It is also used in a sentence, and a bit of other interesting information is supplied on the page as well. A number of other dictionary sites use this idea as well. The idea could be incorporated at some company web sites. A "word of the day" option may be posted for users to link to a page on some technical term or "buzz word" that helps a user learn more about things that might be company- or application-specific.
