Wordle!

What a fun program! I can see why the kids enjoyed working on it so much. Suzy Maldonado uses this for Spanish, and the kids always have a blast. I couldn't stop hitting the remix button. That was somewhat of a rush (for lack of a better word) since I wasn't sure I would like the next version more than the one I had. It's funny because I had a picture in my mind of what I wanted it to look like. It took me 4 different attempts to get the sizing of the words just right.

I was pleasantly surprised to find how easy it was to embed my Wordle on my wall. Having some degree of experience with Blogger, I knew to check out the layout tab and investigate the gadgets that are available. One the bottom of Wordle, I noticed they pointed out the code for posting in blogs. After copying it, I found the gadget that referred to bringing outside information in. And, viola! I must admit, I'm feeling pretty proud of myself right now. :)

I'm also pleased to see that you can just paste it into the middle of the page, too! So much Wordle...
