Link O'the Month: Tagxedo

Tagxedo
http://www.tagxedo.com/
From the website: Tagxedo turns words -- famous speeches, news articles, slogans and themes, even websites -- into a visually stunning tag cloud, words individually sized appropriately to highlight the frequencies of occurrence within the body of text. The site is similar to another favorite, Wordle (http://www.worlde.com/). The difference is Tagxedo word clouds can take the form of a shape (ie map of the US, Abraham Lincoln, footprint.) Tagxedo’s are also easy to download & save and import into other programs!

Enjoy ~ and Happy Creating!
