Yesterday’s post about TagCrowd showed you how to create a simple word cloud. Today’s service, Wordle, gets you basically the same results but in a much more visually pleasing way. As with TagCrowd, give Wordle some text or a URL, or, in this case, a Delicious username and get back a customizable word cloud. Here’s three versions from Wordle based on the same text I used yesterday.

Give TagCrowd a URL, upload a file, or paste in some text and get a tag cloud of that content in just seconds along with HTML to paste it into your site. Here’s the results of this morning’s NCompass Blog home page.
