Wordle


You’ve seen them, maybe heard about them, now you can make them and use them to bundle ideas, to sort out information and to spawn new ways of seeing and thinking about data.

Generate your own ‘word cloud’. It’s as easy as:

1. Log on to www.wordle.net
2. Click on ‘create’ and input your ‘data’
3. Voila, you’ve create a wordle. Use it, print it, send it off, bring it to the next meeting or post it on your wall.

You can play with the text font, colours and layout. Have a look at their samples.

There's another cool tool that's free as well, it's called a PersonalBrain where you can create webs of ideas or files. If your mind needs to organize in a different manner check it out at www.thebrain.com
