Nifty Wordle Art



Here's my wordle art for this blog. What a very cool concept! Apparently I write a lot about school in this blog.

A couple words of excitement and caution:
1. Wordle can take text or URLs and create a piece of word art. I already checked out some very interesting ones that took text from "Pride and Prejudice" or "The Odyssey" and created some very interesting (and telling) pieces of art.
2. Once Wordle has created a piece for you, you can take out words that you do not want to appear on your piece. A wonderful feature when you consider that you wouldn't really want that identifying information out there on the web.
3. You can change the font, the color, the "verticalness" or "horizontalness" of your words.
4. A NOTE OF CAUTION - Once you "save to gallery," the piece is there for anyone to see. You can see here that the website creator has no plans to erase any of them.

Have fun carefully wordle-ing!

we love this too! I think we may do our SMP t-shirt next year using this tool . . . it does half the work for us, which is a good thing!
