Finds 'n' Fancies


A couple of weeks ago, while skimming over some posts on Ohdeedoh, I found a great new time-waster (because I need another one) in Wordle, a word cloud generator designed by Jonathan Feinberg. Since then, I've taken advantage of the free and easy-to-use site by making word clouds for my daughter's nursery, but after reading Kristin's moving post and all the loving responses, I was moved to create one using those same beautiful words to share with you all. If you'd like to print one up, just go here. While you're there, you may find yourself unable to resist the urge to create one yourself. The program has a small collection of pre-set colors or you can create your own combinations. Hex Hub has a wide selection of color codes should you feel the need to exercise some creative freedom.


Hope you've enjoyed today's Finds 'n' Fancies. I'll return with more next week! --Katie :D
