wwcitizenA new connection (thanks ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dan4behr and dailyafirmation for the inspiration!) posted something the other day, which I found interesting: a Word Cloud from a colleague's document. I googled "Word Cloud Generator" and found Wordle! I looked through the documentation to find out where the text is stored before I copied in 1300+ pages of my blog here. The text is kept on your machine (it uses a Java applet) as you play with the settings, layouts, word counts, fonts, colors, etc.! Only if you save your word cloud to the gallery will the text be stored. So, if you wanna play around with this from texts that you've created (someone's already copied and pasted the US Constitution...), you're fine with even confidential or private information.
Here are my top three word clouds:
Top 200 Words:
Top 25 Words:
Top 10 Words:
