Jeffrey’s Tweet Cloud for a Year

Hi Jeffrey!
Very interesting this cloud. Shows a lot about you, don’t you think?
I would like to know what are my most used words…Actually, this cloud reminds a child’s play (not just child ;) ) that I used to do.
I remember when was at school and when I got bored I started writing random list with words from the teacher or anywhere, then reading outloud.
Good memory.
Take care,
Ana

Great memories! Do you use Twitter? This is a tool that will work with it, depending on the amount of time you tell it to cloud.

Another option, even from blog posts, is to try the tool Wordle http://www.wordle.net/; it would be interesting to see what your work over the last few months shows about what you write!
