Wordle!

I found this cool new website this morning which generates word clouds. I've been looking for something along these lines for ages for my blog, using post tags, but this cool little app uses your RSS feed to generate the bubble. You can customise everything from the font to the colours! Here's what I got (with a little bit of fiddling) when I entered my feed!

I think I'm going to have HOURS of fun with this one... heh heh I also had a go at creating a wordle based on one of my poems. I'm quite happy with the result! The word cloud really gets across the theme of the poem.

Unchanged by history, frozen in time 

A shamble of buildings, chaotic and close 

Winding pathways through shopfronts and homes 

A bazaar of mules and wares 

Cloying heat and exotic smells 

Of spices and sweat, animal and man 

Sunlight dappled through rushes and roofs 

Rough ancient plaster and tarnished bronze 

Vibrant colours, mosaic and cloth 

Carvings of wood, deep grained and lacquered 

Leathery faces sit basking from doorsteps 

Aromas of mint and tea mixed with smoke 

Saffron-stained leather dries in the sun 

Hands and feet stained scarlet 

Beaten gold into intricate designs 

Adorn doorways next to tile mosaique 

Shops that open onto sandy alleys 

A labryinthine network of streets and buildings 

Roofs overlapping, tilework and whitewash 

Whilst the wail of religion calls to service
