Wordle is a neat little website where you can for generate "word clouds" from text that you input. You can personalize your clouds with choose several different fonts, layouts, and color schemes to make your word cloud more unique and the more often a word appears in the text box, the larger the word appears in the word cloud. After you create your Wordle, you can print the image out or save them to a gallery to share with others, but I could not figure out how to save the image, if I were to want to put it into a document or save it onto my desktop. I think this would be a neat tool as far as making a project more aesthetically pleasing, adding some creativity to an assignment, or simply for fun, but did not see very much use in it as far as academics.
