A few observations from the grid.
Eight of the nine columns have three common letters--potentially forming "tic tac toes" with one another. Two columns have four common letters--column 5 (letter c) and column 9 (letter e).
Eight of the nine letters in touchtone are common to at least two other words, meaning that Touchtone could be the middle of our tic tac toe grid.
Just thinking out loud here.

Actually, sorry, only 7 of the 9 letters in TOUCHTONE are part of the "triples."
