It's pretty cool, basically what you do is you put in a bunch of words or writing and whatnot and it makes it into a "word cloud." It's fun. Here's mine. btw, to save this, I had to screenshot my page.

looks really fucking cool...although I'm not sure what words I'd use. Possibly just copy and paste a favorite song lyric?

I put almost every song or poem I ever wrote in there, it was cool seeing what words were most prominent. It shows what's most important to the writer, I thought that was really neat.

If you have a PC, do Shift+Alt+PrintScreen. That basically copies the screen.
Edit: It's just PrintScreen. I don't know why I thought it was that. haha

this could turn into a fun "guess the song" game.
for example:

Sweet!
I love this: http://www.joytoykid.org/
Under Miscellaneous Goodies it has Joy Electric E-Poetry, which is a bunch of scrambled words you can arranged into poems. :shrug: It's a fun way to kill time and be creative, haha.

I just made a thread for it in general, we'll see how it goes. I'm having fun with this.

I spent ages fiddling around with different pieces of mine, and then stuck this one in and I loved it as soon as it came up:

I really love some of the word pairings, like 'Cold blood', 'better watch', 'empty belong', 'second maybe nature', 'go dream touch', 'soil alone', 'superficial intention', 'need words', 'missed lungs', 'rush see', and 'barely meant'; most of which have pretty much nothing to do with each other in the actual piece.
Anyway, I had to adjust the screenshot slightly to get the dimensions to match up to my screen.
EDIT: I just found out you can right-click on individual words, and remove them from the cloud. Nice!

I've decided every shitty piece I read posted I will suggest they go here so at least we can see a pretty looking cloud.
