Wordles
February 9th, 2009
My bestest bud, Judean, sent me a bunch of fun sites that focus on word-play. Goodness gracious, there are so many ways to create with words! On the Wordle website, you can enter your blog address (or any web page) and it will pull words from it to create word art. You can then change the font, the color scheme, and the arrangement style to your liking. In the one above, I thought it looked a bit like a dress if I turned it on its side. Here a few more creations from the site:
Good fun! Judean also sent me links to a Random word generator and an incredibly cool site which helps you create your own fonts. I'm definitely going to try out that font creator.

Whoa! I’m still checking out the links you’ve got here – but I just went to the Random Word Generator – and wowee!!! My random word is “Author”. Hallelujah!!! Thank you thank you thank you! I am going to take that as a sign that it will really come true!

Wow… I took a peek at that ‘make your own font’ site… that is so very friggin cool! I just love that idea. If only i still had my all-in-one…. sigh. No scanner here . Still… i am excited to see what kind of things you guys come up with here . I do hope someone posts a link with a homemade font, as it would be wonderful to live vicariously through you on that one
