	Myriad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Similarly, the system using myriads works up to a myriad myriad, or one hundred million, which was left as the largest named number by the Ancient Greeks and is also the largest named number in the Bible.
		One million is a hundred myriad (100 x 10000 instead of 1000 x 1000); the next uniquely named number after a myriad is 億, which is myriad myriad (10000 x 10000) or a hundred million.
		The largest number named in Ancient Greek was a myriad myriad and Archimedes of Syracuse used this quantity as the basis for a numeration system of large powers of ten, which he needed to count grains of sand, see The Sand Reckoner.

		Myriad attempts to make the best use of the advantages of the two main approaches to information delivery: the delivery-driven approach of adaptive hypermedia systems and the retrieval-driven approach of information retrieval systems (such as Panoptic).
		Myriad exploits a variety of concepts and techniques from the field of Language Technology to answer complex requests for information, i.e., requests that are satisfied through aggregating the result of a number of single queries.
		Myriad applications are able to find and extract appropriate information from different data sources, such as databases, web pages or other textual documents, carefully constructing the required queries such that they relate to each other in specific, structured ways, and the information they return contribute to the user’s information need.

	§ 214. myriad. 3. Word Choice. The American Heritage Book of English Usage. 1996
		Throughout most of its history in English, myriad was used as a noun, as in a myriad of men.
		In the early 19th century it began to be used in poetry as an adjective, as in myriad men.
		The Greek word murias, from which myriad derives, could be used as either a noun or as an adjective, but the noun murias was used in general prose and in mathematics while the adjective murias was used only in poetry.

		BOSTON, MA —July 23, 2002 — Myriad Inc., (http://www.myriadweb.com), an integrated strategy and design agency providing print and interactive media solutions, and Mass Insight Education, a Boston-based nonprofit organization working to improve student achievement in public schools, recently launched a ground-breaking website (http://www.buildingblocks.org) as part of the Building Blocks Initiative for Standards-Based Reform.
		Due to the large scale of documents, Myriad’s challenge in designing the site was to provide different types of users with access to different types of information in a quick, easy and user-friendly fashion.
		To achieve this, Myriad and Mass Insight Education collaborated to develop the Educators’ Blueprints, an online library that is being stocked with school-improvement strategies (more than 100 by this fall) that are searchable by specific criteria.

		A vast number: the myriads of bees in the hive.
		In the 19th century it began to be used in poetry as an adjective, as in myriad men.
		Both usages in English are acceptable, as in Samuel Taylor Coleridge's “Myriad myriads of lives.” This poetic, adjectival use became so well entrenched generally that many people came to consider it as the only correct use.

		As in, "Let's examine the myriad facets of the President." Literally, that would mean "Let's examine the 10,000 facets of the President." Frequently, in print and speech, it is used as "a myriad of," like "there was a myriad of choices." Literally, that doesn't work at all ("There was a 10,000 of choices"!).
		Your questions are whether the usage of "myriad" has changed, whether that change is due to popular confusion and/or sloppiness, and whether popular usage, even if wrong, is a good enough reason to change dictionary definitions.
		It is true that the original meaning of "myriad," based on its Greek roots, was "ten thousand." But it is also true that "myriad" has been used by literate writers to mean "large or countless numbers" of something since the 16th century, a very long time ago.

		usage Recent criticism of the use of myriad as a noun, both in the plural form myriads and in the phrase a myriad of, seems to reflect a mistaken belief that the word was originally and is still properly only an adjective.
