Word Clouds

“What’s a Word Cloud?” you ask?

A Wordle is a “word cloud” that is created from text that you provide (be it a web site, text you enter, RSS feed, etc). The Wordle’s algorithm gives greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. Once your Wordle is generated, you can tweak to your heart’s content with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. There are several word cloud generation apps and software out there. Simply find one that appeals to you and go!

This one was created with WordArt.

And this one was created using a now-retired site called Wordle (before the game came into existence!). The closest version still available is a site called EdWordle.
