Wordles

I must say, this is a really cool tool.  I have seen "Wordles" before on the web and in print, but I didn't know this was the tool used to make them.  On my first wordle, I took the "personal background" from my ASU profile.  It wasn't much, but certain words like chihuahua, Charlotte, and children really stuck out of the bunch.  They are all significant words...I love Chihuahua's, live in Charlotte, and have no children.  The link to the wordle, "What I'll be" makes me proud:)!  All the words in that paragraph were significant, and this tool makes them all "special".  I think this would be a great tool for adding some "spice" to a project, or even just getting your point across in a campaign.  In relevance to this Web 2.0 course, this tool shows how we can use different ways to communicate over the web outside of just horizontal, 12 pt, black text.  I can put this wordle image on my blog, and a person can instantly see what I'm trying to say...take a look...


Who I am
What I'll be

See, you know more than if we had a conversation, or reading an intro email!  I really like this tool...for sure I will use this on future projects.  Although I'm not a random type of person, the randomization of it is very interesting, and it puts a different perspective of what you may view "looks correct".
