    Thank you for linking my post on wordle to your post. I love using wordle and so do my students. It was great to look at the other posts that you have referred to, as well.

    I think Wordle is exceptionally useful in helping students determine which sites offer information that they are currently researching. A student can quickly determine whether a site contains a lot of information on their topic by looking at the bigger words which represent the amount of information on that site and help minimize student’s spending a lot of time searching for information on a page that might not help them.

    I have never seen this program before so do not know all of its capacity, however it looks quite interesting and I can’t wait to try it out. I think it would be great for brainstorming ideas and may try it at work. Today I introduced the Wiki to my supervisor and he wants me to show it to the rest of our quality team as a way to keep track of our projects. So perhaps when I check out the wordle I will be able to use it as well. Thanks for all these neat tools.
