WORDLE IS FUN!




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.

My blog’s word cloud:

blog wordle/word cloud

My tumblr’s word cloud:

tumblr wordle/word cloud

I’m a big fan of typography and color (and the art of fence installation huhlolz) so it’s not surprising that I am enjoying creating word cloud after word cloud a little too much. I especially love how the words beautifully relate to each other, despite the jumble and the random placement.

    I don’t even know what typography means! That looks fun though, would you know if you can turn your tags into something that looks like that? :p
