I hadn’t heard of Wordle until now. I thought you had made a typo. :^D But then I wondered what I was doing editing a tag cloud anyway.

[img:tag-cloud2Picture9_6593.png] Wordle (no, not worlde) is has a pretty impressive world cloud generator. It's not quite a tag cloud, as that would imply that it's linked to content somewhere, but the visual algorithms are pretty cool. (Lastly, I can't vouch for the source of the fonts in use - there are a half dozen to choose from. They're not font names I readily recognize.)
