Word Clouds

I have been undertaking some work in analysing responses to a consultation and as part of that process came across a word cloud.  You quite often see these on blogs or social network pages and the give a visual representation of the frequency of words within a web page or alternatively a text file.

I thought these would be difficult to create and perhaps need some specialist software so I was pleasantly surprised when on Googling "word clouds" to come across a number of free web based resources that you can easily use to create them.

Have a look at Wordle.net and see if you could use this in your reports.
