Wordle

As a visual person, i got a kick out of the analysis of the political speeches from the Democratic and Rebublican conventions using Wordle. Wordle is an online application created by IBM's senior software engineer Jonathan Feinberg. Using text entered by its users, it creates visually alluring "word clouds" that show you the frequency at which words occur within that text. The more often a word occurs, the bigger it appears in the cloud. Check out the speeches of the headliners like Michele and Barack Obama, Cindy and John McCain, Hillary Clinton, Joe Lieberman, Joe Biden, and Sarah Palin.
