beautiful word clouds

so recently nic posted her “wordle” and then i asked myself what the hell is wordle and then i walked down and bought a sandwich but when i came back home i googled “wordle” and found out that “wordle” is a site on the world wide aol internet.

so here’s what comes up for my blog when processed through the lower intestine of wordle.net

oh and yesisaworld only posted one so i thought i would post THREE b/c she gets to live in NYC while i’m stuck in socal and that sorta makes us even.

apparently wordle scans through whatever URL you provide and then runs some algorithm and generates a text cloud based on the aforementioned site’s word useage. i’m assuming that the larger the font the more prominent the occurrence of said word. however, if that’s true then i’ve used the word “phyllis” way way way too much.

UPDATE: ok so i just searched for the word “phyllis” on my blog and remembered that i posted this and it had 3 comments from interweb-bigshots and perhaps that explains the phyllis-action.
