If you haven’t had a chance to play with this little online program, you might want to put down your mouse and have some fun typing keywords into Worlde.
This little program will automatically generate designer-looking word clouds of any words that you enter. The more your enter a word, the larger it will appear in the grouping. Looking at a group of words together can really convey a message all its own and give you a greater appreciation for the language you employ.
Try your family members names, your mission statement, your favorite poems, quotes, speeches, blog posts, website categories, friends . . . the list of possibilities goes on and on.
Shake it up by letting it randomize the fonts, colors and positioning. Try customizing the settings too for even more control. Perhaps it will inspire you on a design you are working on that needs a little extra push.
This sample is from somethingtocherish.com. Now it’s your turn to worlde: try it out at : wordle.net.
