Wordle

Just discovered this site called Wordle when I visited ShadowHouse Creations. It was fun to see the wordy creations that could be made from words already present in my blog!

Visit http://www.wordle.net/



Word collage created by Wordle

I didn't have to sign in, just selected the create option.  There are several ways to create a wordle.  I chose to copy and paste my blog URL and submitted.  After the collage was created, I selected the font, colors and layout that I liked.  I wanted to place the wordle on this blog, but there didn't seem to be a direct way to do it.  After a little investigating, I found a suggestion to print screen.  Eureka!   I opened it in Paint and saved the image as a jpg in my pictures folder.  Next, I opened the image in Photoshop Elements to crop the print screen part away from the image.

As stated on the Wordle website, the words most often used in your blog or entry will have prominence in the collage.
