Wordle

I've been having fun with Wordle, a little tool that allows you to create word clouds based on text that you enter. It's very easy to use, with a simple set of options for changing font, colours and format. To save locally, you need to install a pdf writer, if you don't already have one, but this took me all of 5 seconds.

My first creation is based on our recent Teaching Awards scheme, and I'm quite pleased with the result.

I tried it as well and loved it! Too bad it only does blogs though.

well it does more than that. I've cut and pasted many documents and its a great way of giving a quick view of the key concepts!!

Yes, the one I created was cut and paste from a Word Document.
