the art of wordle-ing

Whilst doing a bit of blog hopping this afternoon I came across this blog - rooftops-rapture ,which referred to wordle-ing (anything with a fab name like that is worth investigating!).  Just look what it does :)


You can put your own words into the program at http://www.wordle.net/, or pick a website, or your blog, and it will pick the words out for you.  The larger the word, the higher its frequency in the text!  How cool would this be as a journal page :)

Let me know if you have a go, it looks a bit addictive to me, but then I love text and lettering!

  2. Isn't this fun? I tripped onto this site about a year ago and had lots of fun creating different word combinations. Cheers!

  3. That site is great Sarah! I've made one too, using the first two lines of a Rutter carol (feeling Christmassy...)

  6. Dear Sarah

    occasionally I landed on your blog and didn't want to go without writing you a word. I very like the artwork you do and am sure to take a look again from time to time.

    By the way, right now I have a Christmas Candy to give away, if you like try your luck; http://creawitch.blogspot.com/2009/11/weihnachts-candy.html

    Love from Karina
