Wordle

Quick break from NYC posting (Yes, McD I promise I'll get to pictures eventually!). One of the blogs I read brought me across a cool site called wordle. You paste in text and it creates these pretty word clouds based on word frequency and whatnot, that you can then manipulate the format, colors, text, etc. As a test, I pasted in an email that the priest who married us asked me to send him before the wedding. In it I was supposed to give some background about my life, my life with the HSH and why I wanted to marry him. This is what it spit back to me. The randomness of it all is pretty amusing when you see some words it groups together! I think there are lots of fun potential uses for this. You could create some pretty images using any text that is special to you...poems, passages, nursery rhymes, love letters, spam. Sure! Spam!
Why not? The possibilities are endless!
Happy Wordle-ing!
