Wordle from Diigo

By Gary On December 10, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Have been using Wordle for the past year and a bit but had not been on the site in a while. Noticed in a Diigo group you could create clouds from RSS feeds.

Here is mine.

One page of my RSS feed as a wordle cloud.

Noticed that the cloud seemed to be weighted towards more recent posts so I tried increasing the number of feeds my wordpress install defaulted to and saw no change to the resulting cloud. Read this in the Wordle FAQ.

There’s no inherent limit to Wordle’s text capacity (just your java plugin’s heap limit), but if you use the rss feed interface it just sucks down the first page of whatever feed you give it and uses that as the text. It doesn’t know how to do anything else.
