coolness for dullness

don't judge the following by my lame title...
UPDATE 06/21/08: I forgot to say - ht Jake for this!
Here's a great way to turn something not fun into something... well, fun!

Wordle - It creates a word cloud from any set of words you put in. I chose my final essay* from my UM Theology class. From this set of words, it creates an image like the one below, of which the words increase in size based on their usage within the set.
*If you're a UM nerd like myself, I'd be happy to pass on this paper for feedback from you. It covers the 5 characteristics that have endured throughout Methodism, strengths and weaknesses of Methodism, and formula for renewal in the UM church.

I just added to the post where I got this "cool little webtool" because I forgot to give credit where credit is due! Check out Jake's blog, he writes about some really good topics with grace and humor! And, he's a great friend.
