Wordle


Create your own word cloud from text that you supply or enter the URL of any blog, blog feed, or any other web page that has an Atom or RSS feed and it will generate a word cloud for you.  Visit http://www.wordle.net/ to get started.  


Your masterpiece can be saved to the public gallery for others to view and use or you can print.  If you don’t like the layout, you can randomize, or change your font, language, layout, or color.  If you want to save your Wordle, take a snapshot of it to save.  I use the camera in Notebook, center the image on the page and then I export it as a jpeg image. 

Also, use Wordle to Guess the Word of the Day – visit http://projectsbyjen.com/GTW/ and subscribe today.
