Everyone is probably familiar with word clouds or tag clouds, but Wordle puts that idea to use and makes it art.

Just paste some text into the input box, type in a website with an RSS feed, or submit a del.icio.us username and you’ve immediately got an artistic interpretation of the words presented on the sources with variations in font size and color dependent on their usage and popularity in the document.

You can modify the fonts and colors to get the fine-tuned look you’re after, but sometimes just letting Wordle do it’s magic is where all the fun comes from.

Here’s one I did from my own personal blog RSS feed.
