Creative Corner with Wordle
http://www.wordle.net
Wordle is a free tool 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. You can also print, save, and share the word clouds with
others.
