Site News: What Words and Topics Are Mentioned Most Frequently?

Ever wondered what words and topics come up most on a site like this? Well now, thanks to what's called a "word cloud generator," you know:

The larger the word, the more frequently it's used. I think it's just the most recent posts that are covered, not the whole 22 months of text. Or at least I hope so.

Tell us more! What generated this image? How'd you do it?

Amazingly enough, google whiffed on "word cloud generator". Zilch.

glad you like it -- fun, right?

i got it off of a site called lifehacker, which linked recently to a blog that lists various kinds of generators.

vague, i know, but that's all i remember. word clouds are little programs that sift through sites and find out which words are most common. they get the big letters.

have fun -- send me whatever you come up with, if you feel like it. i'll post it here.
