Wordle is an on-line utility which takes text that you enter (or it will get text from any URL with an RSS feed, such as a blog) and generates graphics randomly from the text entered. I'm just getting started, but you can tweak the font and the colors, or just let Wordle do it randomly until you get something you like, by hitting the randomize button.

Here's a sample:





























The sample is the first sentence above.

You can print your creation directly. To save it digitally, you have to take a screen-shot (Use the Alt and Print-Screen combinations) then paste the result into some program, preferably, but not necessarily, a graphics editor.

Thanks to Katherine for the tip. Enjoy!
