Day 241: Play on words

"Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends."

If you have time to have some fun, take a piece of writing and wordle it.

I just made a word cloud for 'Melanctha' from Stein's Three Lives - amazing! Thank you for sharing!
