Headwired Wordle Art

Posted on May 19th 2011 by Joel Deutscher

I recently saw some very cool word art generated by articles on on Bish.co.uk and decided to produce one for Headwired. The tool used to create these artworks is a very nifty Java Applet called Wordle.

So what is this magical Wordle you ask?

Wordle is a toy 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. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends

So get out there an create your own!
