Cool Site
I heard about a neat site. It creates word clouds. Now I didn't know what a word cloud was until I went to the site. It is called Wordle. A word cloud is bunch of words formed into a, sort of, cloud shape. The size of the word in the word cloud depends on how often it is typed in. I think I will play around with the program & then post some pictures of what I have created.

When we get into tagging and social bookmarking we'll be using tag clouds, which are word clouds using tags - they're a pretty useful device!
I've used this site, and it was lots of fun. I was working (not exclusively, obviously) on our policy manual at the time. I loaded it in there, and it really showed what we were obsessing about!
Thanks for the comments. Dee Ann. I work with 4H poultry kids. I want to make word cloud for them with chicken words. I also think it would be fun to let them all tell me their favorite breeds & make that into a word cloud.
