Wordle Wonder

Wordle is a program that generates "word clouds" from text that you provide. Unlike regular word clouds that simply give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text, Wordle makes an image with words of varied prominence. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. You can print out the images, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends.

Here's a Wordle for this blog. Click on the image for a larger version:
