WordleBy Alma Row
Need a quick way to make a word cloud? Wordle is a speedy tool that will take any group of words -- a quote, a speech, your del.icio.us tags, an RSS feed…-- and create a graphic in which the frequency of use of each word is represented using font size or other visual clues. Word clouds can be great discussion starters, a fun way to brainstorm ideas or critique a speech, a poem, a page in a book…or a student’s homework excuse.
