What's in a Word (Cloud)?  

Posted by edelweiza in , , , ,

We all know words are powerful. As one of basic forms of communication, words have always been a part of one's life. I can't imagine how the world will look like without words or how people will function effectively without saying a word.

Have you heard about word clouds? It's a cluster of words in various colors arranged randomly. You can create one at Wordle.net. I made one for my desktop a while ago and I was very pleased. Just take a look at my current desktop background to see what I mean:

word cloud ko

Making a work cloud is as easy as ABC. You just have to put a bunch of texts in the form provided and the site will generate the word cloud for you automatically. You can even edit it (arrangement, font, layout, color, etc.) to produce your desired look.

The mere sight of a particular word activates my brain. It gives me ideas, sometimes brings back memories or simply put things in perspective. This morning, I have once again embraced the fact that words have a lot to do in stimulating my senses and motivating me to become more productive each passing day.

Do words have the same effects to you?

That's a nice thing. I'll try that. I did something like that months ago but I used Photoshop for it.
