Word clouds can be a great way to quickly display what words appear most in a body of text and gives the reader an idea of what the writing is about before they read it. Wordle is a free online tool which allows you to easily create word clouds by simply copying and pasting the text you want to use.
When creating a word cloud with Wordle you have the abillity to choose between different colours, layouts, and fonts. Here’s a word cloud we created from text on the homepage of the LANcom Technology site.
Once you have created word cloud using Wordle you can then print it, save to their public gallery, or use the print screen button on your keyboard to capture an image of it.
