For some reason I f***ing love this thing:

Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends.

Not really useful as a static graphics :/ , I have one that dynamically puts a html word cloud on my site, and clicking on the word actually brings up a page of search results from the site for that word.

fyi, word clouds are s***

they're so not s*** I created a whole thread dedicated to them

Not really useful as a static graphics :/

Why do they have to be useful as anything other than art?

I'm gunna agree with Trog on this one. Wordles for the win.

Hey can u fix link for me or tell me how to post ?
tried one of 9/11 conspiracy.

Was thinking that the less words used that can contain more meaning would give a more insightful Wordle. For instance substituting 9/11 for a variety of words could create a less random msg a bit like using a smaller pallette to paint the same picture in that some colours would be 'merged'

Tried to get Pi to work but i guess it doesnt do numbers.
